It takes Eugenia Wood a week to decorate for Christmas and she flies her brother in from Greece to help out.

Her house is blocks away from the Beach Boardwalk, but it's brighter.

Here's a story on the history of her decorating. This year, she's found even more space to light up and one of her neighbors has joined. 

Traffic stops regularly before the lights go out at 10 p.m. and people take pictures all evening long.

Is there a better display in the Bay Area?
