North Pole Village


By Gemma Cleanslate


“WELCOME to North Pole Village & Santa's Workshop! Re-experience the magic of your childhood as you enter the village. Be sure to visit each of the 15 locales found here and most of all...remember to... B*E*L*I*E*V*E !! “    is the greeting at the entrance to the Village. Take a notecard from the information poster so you don’t miss any of the possibilities in the village and the workshop.The elves have a hunt going on too for fifteen gifts through out the town.
 


This is really a place that takes you back to childhood and stories of the North Pole and where the toys were made. Follow the icy path down to the entrance to the village. When the gates open the view of the town is charming. Each little shop or door holds a story when you visit each one.
 


When you climb the stairs to the workshop and the doors part the splash of Christmas color and movement is everywhere as the elves hammer at their builds. The colorful boxes are piled to the ceiling.  Santa’s throne is empty because he may be out checking the reindeer and sleighs. In the kitchen more elves get the gingerbread houses ready for the ovens. Mrs Claus is overseeing the activity and handing out samples.
 


This is a 24 hour business and you can find some of the elves sleeping or resting and reading  in their little dormitory above the kitchens. I took a peek into Santa’s bedroom on the way by.
 
As I left the dorm I looked over the rail down to the stables and, sure enough ,there was Santa checking his sleigh . This is a charming place to visit every year. I have to go back for the hunt! Wear the Christmas Tree Hud to aid you  . Music off and sounds on to really experience what is going on around you as you go around town. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Porvoo/217/133/128
