Hi 
Now that Christmas is approaching I found it would be nice to show the kids what Santa is up to at the moment. So I made a a little automation that randomly send a virtual device tracker around lapland.
The automation it self is made in node red, but with a little helper entities in home assistant.
Destinations are randomized, and their locations made by zones. Easy to modify for your own needs.
Feel free to use, and feel free to suggest further improvements.
Source code for node red:
