Santa seen waterskiing in Lake Washington during ‘end-of-route relaxation tradition’

SEATTLE — After delivering presents across the globe, Santa and Buddy the Elf took to Lake Washington on their water skis Monday morning for a wet and wild Christmas celebration.

While Santa enjoyed his “end-of-route relaxation tradition”, he could be seen ripping along the leeward side of the I-90 floating bridge with his trusty elf friend at the helm.

The ride surprised drivers on the bridge just after 9 a.m.

Although he is clearly a professional, Santa spent as much time lounging in the water as he did gliding over it.

“Ho-Ho-Holy Claus that water’s cold!” said Santa.
