Lightner Museum

With an in-depth collection of Victorian-era art and artifacts, Lightner Museum could find no better setting to house its works than the former Alcazar Hotel, built in 1887. Relics cover three floors of the intricately architected building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designed in Spanish-Renaissance style by the visionaries behind the New York Public Library. Inside the magnificent lobby, whitewashed pillars connect high ceilings bordered by intricate plastered molds with amaranthine-hued mosaic floors.

Wander into the Science and Industry room for views of a taxidermied crocodile suspended from the ceiling, mingling among cases filled with statuettes and antique globes. Moving into neighboring galleries, a carved and gilded neoclassical rocking chair and colorful, mosaic-like Louis Comfort Tiffany lamps provide insight into the daily lives of Victorian citizens. Other 19th-century paintings and statues showcase the era's artistic inspiration as well as its curious fashions, such as wearing Santa Claus hats year-round.

The Groupon Guide to: Types of Cousins

Since so many people seem to be having babies, a lot more cousins are being made every single day. Here's a handy guide you can consult if you want to keep your cousins straight:

  • First Cousin: Your aunt and uncle’s child
  • Second Cousin: Your aunt and uncle’s pet
  • Third Cousin: Not real
  • Cousin Once Removed: Cousin who was ordered to never again attend family functions but then later appealed the ruling and was reinstated by a judge who understood just how important family is in today's fast-paced society
  • Half Cousin: Your aunt and uncle’s half child/half pet
  • Cou: Shorthand for half cousin
  • Whole Cousin: Two half cousins standing near each other
  • Craisin: Cousin named Craig
  • Cousig: Different cousin named Craig
  • Grandparent: Young cousin who just looks really old

How can I make sure my once-removed cousin never returns? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
