fabrisseIt bothers me that Smithsonians are open on Thanksgiving -- which I consider to be the inclusive American holiday -- but closed on Christmas. However, since it's the only day of the year they're closed (barring earthquakes), I don't mind too much.
But I wanted to spend New Year's day in New York to see exhibits at MoMA and the Met, and I found out that they're closed on New Year's -- as well as Christmas, Thanksgiving, Mondays (in the case of the Met). Hmmmph.
I'm going to see about going up on Saturday, December 29th. I'll make it a full day, possibly with a theater performance included. It'll be a rough 24 hours, but probably worth it. With luck, I'll have time to hit the High Line.
Does anyone have other suggestions? Good Vegetarian or Vegan restaurants near the museums? If I can't do it the 29th, I'll go at the beginning of February. I want to see the Matisse exhibit before it goes away.
