John Clark and stepdaughter Cassie made the short driver down State Road 50 from Titusville Tuesday.
“We've been making this an annual tradition,” Clark said.
The Clarks head for the post office in the town of Christmas, in east Orange County. There they mail Christmas cards to family members across the country – with a special touch.
There, guests can use stamps to add a special touch to the mail – from several snowmen, to Kris Kringle himself, surrounded by the phrase, "It's Always Christmas in Christmas, Florida.
Local postal workers then take all the mail to Orlando for the commemorative official post office seal.
It's not just for locals, people come from all around to get the special postmark.
Catherine Haight is here for the first time and drove a hundred miles from Brooksville in Hernando County.
“I was like, I'm off today, I'm going!” Haight said.
The post office is flooded with patrons each day, trying to get those special cards and letters off in time for Christmas.
This post office was established back in 1892.
If you go, bring your driver's license inside to borrow a stamper. Unfortunately, over the years thieves have swiped the stamps.
