Santa eats lots of pizza in Little Italy!

Santa Claus appeared this morning in Little Italy. He bought a yummy pizza at Landini's Pizzeria. I guess a good pizza is hard to come by at the North Pole.

I didn’t expect to see Santa this morning in Little Italy! What was he doing there?

I walked up and down India Street spying on the exploits of Santa and his merry Christmas pals. Read the photo captions and you’ll learn what I discovered…

Possibly to flag down Santa while he flew by overhead, a Buon Natale banner was hung on a street lamp in San Diego's Little Italy neighborhood.

Apparently Santa left his sleigh and went into Filippi's Pizza Grotto to get another pizza.

I hope Santa doesn't neglect to put those presents in his sleigh under the Little Italy Christmas tree.

Thank goodness! He hasn't forgotten. Strange, but now he's flying a train onto rooftops. When you're full of Christmas magic, you can do things like that.

I wonder if this nutcracker likes pizza. Chances are he prefers walnuts.

Rudolph and an elf are also hanging out in Little Italy while Santa pays his visit. It seems everyone loves Italian food!

I hope and pray Santa brought lots of gifts. He'd better not forget Little Italy's poinsettia tree in Piazza Basilone.

That's nice. This elf brought candy canes. Obviously, Santa with his big jolly belly likes to constantly eat.

Candy canes and pasta in a window of an Italian market. Perhaps it's a tasty combination, perhaps not.

Hey Santa! I see you're still hanging around Little Italy. You must be really hungry.

Santa can't get enough Italian food, it seems. He has already grown pale from hunger. Time for more pizza.

What is Frosty the Snowman up to in that window.
Wait!  What is Frosty the Snowman up to in that window?
Oh, dear! Frosty grabbed the pizza! What will Santa do.
