Santa Claus in Auckland

This is a picture of some construction workers setting up the Santa Claus and the two Reindeers outside a big old bookstore named Whitcoulls in Auckland City New Zealand.

This big Santa Claus with his big reindeers as Christmas decorations have become a land mark in Queen Street for years and years.

Can you guess how much money is spent to put up and display Santa Claus and his Reindeers?  It costs about $20 million New Zealand dollars. Luckily, there are some companies willing to sponsor this year.

Therefore, Aucklanders in New Zealand can still enjoy seeing Santa and his Reindeers this year at Christmas time.  These are pictures of people putting up Santa and the Reindeers.  This is a really difficult job.
