Nah, he has a ship (steamboat) and a horse called Americo. And if memory serves me right, the English version is derived from the American version which was derived from the Dutch Sinterklaas...

No Reindeer!!! "Boo!" Animals have employment rights too! Is that why he has that laaarge red Superman cape, to fly around the world instead of being dragged by Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph et al? :D

Ah, but there's the difference: Sinterklaas (or Sint Niklaas) comes on the 5th of December and there are no reindeer or mince pies in sight!

'Mum and dad at the foot of your bed scoffing the whiskey, carrots and mince pie left out for Saint Nick and his Reindeer' in English. :)
