We need your help. Well, at least your creativity.

Mountain View resident Andy Sweer snapped this photo on Saturday, Nov. 3 outside of Le Boulanger and then shared it with Patch. It struck him a little out-of-the-ordinary.

What do you think Santa was doing on Castro St. on that day? Leave your caption below!
