Dealing with family for an entire day can be trying enough. If you're crammed into a 1,000- to 2,000-square-foot house for hours on end, it makes it that much more excruciating.

Pack up the kids, Grandpa, and all other drive-you-crazy relatives and head to ZooLights. There, you'll get to feel a little freedom in the fresh air while everyone enjoys walking the trails filled with a spectacular display of holiday lights. (When you enter, be sure to peek to your left to see our personal fave: the peacock.)
