Santa Claus took a break from the cookies and went running to town in Sydney, Australia this weekend. Hundreds of Santas ran a 5-k to raise money for disadvantaged and special needs kids. But that's not all Santa did. Kris Kringle is seen water skiing with fireworks and donning a jet pack to kick off the holiday season.

Christmas cheer spread across the world to legoland in San Diego, California. There, people celebrated the 10th annual lighting of the world's largest Lego christmas tree. It's made of 11-thousand LED lights, 245 thousand Legos and four hundred Lego ornaments.
Lego Carolers, and real carolers, sang in the season with Santa on hand.

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen and you can wear their poop on your ears! Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington, Illinois, sells reindeer poop earrings and ornaments to people across the world.
And they're a big hit. "They come into the gift shop and they'll be standing right in front of this display and they'll say 'where are the reindeer ornaments?' because they've heard about them, and 'oh they're right in front of them!' and they can't believe it because they're kinda cute." Before you poo-poo the idea, the droppings for sale have been dehydrated and are fully sanitized.
