Also, would appreciate any suggestions on things to do during the Chinese New Year when many places are shut down (aside from seeing the parade and fireworks).
Do you have any families & relatives there? They sure would throw you into a party of their own if you do. I know for sure I'll be spending time with my own.
CNY is a time when families, relatives and friends gather together to savor this traditional holiday.
