Dia de Washington-Lincoln

📣 Notas para viajantes

The United States features diverse geography, including major urban centers (e.g., Manhattan, Chicago), natural wonders (e.g., Yellowstone, Alaska), and varied landscapes like Southwest canyonlands, Florida beaches, and Hawaii.

• On federal holidays, most government offices, post offices, and banks are closed, though private business hours vary.
• If the holiday falls on a weekend, the observance is typically shifted to the nearest weekday.
• The period between Thanksgiving and January 1 is a busy 'holiday season,' which increases crowding at airports, roads, and retail locations.
• Many major facilities and stores often remain open and crowded around specific annual holiday dates, even if they fall on a weekend.
• In restaurants, maintain quiet behavior and request 'to go' containers for leftovers. When visiting a private home, a small gift (such as wine or flowers) is appreciated, but only contribute food if the host specifically asks.
