cruise to the north pole

We drove out to Coeur d' Alene, Idaho one night (a 30 minute drive)
to take a ferry cruise to the North Pole!
The lights were beautiful, out on Lake Coeur d' Alene.


It was a bit chilly, so we took breaks to sit inside and warm up.
One of these breaks included hot chocolate,
frosted Christmas tree cookies and watching A Charlie Brown Christmas.

When we arrived at the North Pole, we saw Santa and Mrs. Claus.
Santa read the names off of this year's Nice List
and our kids were glad to hear their names read.
