mton Zoo. Our favorite exhibits were the penguins.

The kids loved seeing them swim around.

While we were in Syracuse, we decided to also stop at the MOST (Museum of Science and Technology). Not having a detailed map of Syracuse, I asked at the zoo info desk for directions. They handed me a piece of paper which seemed to give directions, but once on the road, every turn direction was not correct (though the street names were). We eventually found our way to the museum and had about an hour to explore before it closed. The big climbing structure called Science Playhouse occupied the kids for most of the time. Benjamin loved shooting foam balls at a target.

The flight simulator activities were also huge hits.

We definitely could have spent more time at the science museum, but the kids got to spend some time at the activities they found the most exciting. We didn't stay for dinner because of the Passover holiday, but overall it was a worthwhile trip.
