Santa has temporarily left the island areas of the South Pacific and is heading north. We are receiving a lot of reports from the ships at sea.

This is normal. Santa will appear to zig zag a lot on the map in the part of the world. He shakes things up because some people stay up later in some area over others. It’s normal.

And just because we don’t mark every area on the map doesn’t mean Santa didn’t visit there. Our maps give a general report of Santa’s activity only. We don’t have time to report every visit. Plus Santa moves so fast it is hard to keep up with him!
