New York City Fire Museum's Annual Santa Rescue

Kris Kringle makes an early appearance—and gets stranded on the roof when his reindeer fly off without him. Happily, New York's Bravest come to the rescue. Viewing the rooftop exploits is free to all, but for the cost of museum admission, you can head inside to enjoy quality time and a photo op with Saint Nick, plus hot chocolate, live Christmas carols and…hot dogs?
