A Very London Adventure

Mrs Claus and I decided to take a little sightseeing trip to London today. “We’ll blend in,” I said. “No one will even notice us.”

Spoiler alert: they noticed.

We landed the sleigh on a quiet rooftop (next to some very surprised pigeons) and headed straight to see Big Ben. “Is that a clock or a giant biscuit tin?” Buttons asked later. Honestly, fair question.

Next stop was a red double-decker bus. I bent down to get through the bus door, but my hat got stuck on the top! I had to shuffle sideways like a crab until I finally plopped into a seat. Turns out, my coat had picked up someone’s scarf on the way through, I wore it for three stops before Mrs Claus noticed!

Mrs Claus wanted to visit the Tower of London. I wanted a cup of tea. We did both. She loved the history. I loved the biscuits. Buttons tried speaking in his “British accent” the whole day and kept calling me “Guv’nor Santa.”

We went on the London Eye and saw the Houses of Parliament and the Thames river, Buttons waved at people on a boat but I don't think they could see him!

But you know what I loved most? Walking through a city so full of people, stories, sparkle and being reminded that magic isn’t just at the North Pole. It’s in every place, every person, every ordinary moment that turns into something you’ll never forget.

✨ Today’s little wonder: Adventure lives everywhere. Just open your eyes, hold someone’s hand, and follow the joy.
