This is the fourth and final part of my video from Sunday August 21, 2011, which was my fifth day of sightseeing in New York City. 

This video shows my trip back from Roosevelt Island over the Welfare Island lift bridge to Queens. As the rain started again, I rode across the Queensboro Bridge back to Manhattan and then back to my hotel. I also took an evening walk in the rain along an interesting elevated walkway called Highline.

Check out my next video to see my day of sightseeing on the East side of Midtown, and my story about getting standby tickets to the Late Show with David Letterman.
