by Journey, age 9 from Englewood, New Jersey, asks Santa about a possible commercial, the Hudson River, and the town’s acting talent.
Dear Santa, my name is Journey, and I am nine years old. I live in Englewood, New Jersey, where my dad says a famous actor was born right here in our own town.
Dear Journey, a town that gave the world that much acting talent deserves a very appreciative flyover, your dad picked a truly star-studded hometown.
Santa, I have three questions.
Is there a John Travolta Santa commercial? My dad says an actor born right here once appeared in a holiday ad.
I honestly cannot say for certain, Journey, with so many holiday commercials made over the years I do not always keep track of every single one. Tell your dad the best way to check is a good online video search or a trusted entertainment website.
My dad says Englewood sits just across the Hudson River from New York City. Is that true?
It is true, Journey, the Hudson River separates your town from Manhattan’s skyline just across the water. I always enjoy that lively, well-connected landscape flying in to visit you.
My dad says our town has been home to quite a few well-known actors and performers. Is that true?
It is true, Journey, your town has produced a fair share of talented actors and performers over the years. That kind of hometown pride is really something worth celebrating.
Merry Christmas, Santa.
Your friend,
Journey Marchetti
Englewood, New Jersey
P.S. Will you let me know if you find out?
The very moment I know, Journey, news like that travels fast.
