It isn't too late to squeeze in some holiday sightseeing.
Plenty of houses in New Jersey go above and beyond every holiday season, such as the Martel's Christmas Wonderland in Hamilton.
The Martel family sets up the display each year for neighbors and New Jerseyans alike to enjoy, and it's nothing short of spectacular. 
"All I can tell you is there's a lot of lights, there's over 700 blow molds, probably over 400 animated dolls. A running Ferris wheel, a running swing. And as you can see on this side, that's my neighbor's property, but I decorate their whole side, too," says Bob Martel.  
You can see the display at 21 Phillips Ave. in Hamilton. The show runs seven days a week from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. through New Year’s Day.
