Día de Virginia Occidental (observado)

📣 Notas para viajeros

The United States is geographically diverse, featuring vast natural areas, major metropolitan centers (like Manhattan and Chicago), and varied tourist destinations, including national parks (Yellowstone), the American Southwest, and coastal regions (Florida, Hawaii).

• On federal holidays, most government offices, post offices, and banks will be closed, though private businesses may remain open.
• If a federal holiday falls on a weekend, the observed day is usually shifted to the nearest weekday (Friday or Monday).
• The period between Thanksgiving and January 1 is known as the 'holiday season,' which can cause heavy crowds and congestion at travel hubs.
• New Year's Day (January 1) is a federal holiday, resulting in the closure of most non-retail businesses.
• When dining in the US, it is generally best to take seats at occupied tables unless it is a crowded, informal eatery. Use good table manners, avoiding noises like slurping or loud conversation. When invited to a private home, it is appropriate to bring a small gift for the host. At formal meals, lay cloth napkins across the lap.
