This is the first 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 through the upper part of Brooklyn to Queens. I ate breakfast at a cafe called 'Think Coffee'. I rode across the East river using Williamsburg Bridge which seemed to be have been the most bike friendly bridge that I traveled on during my trip in NYC. The bridge took me to the upper part of 

Brooklyn. I then rode diagonnaly through Brooklyn and Queens to Flushing. The first landmark I stopped to see was Forest Hills High School, where many celebrities studied including Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Jerry Springer, The Ramones, and Peter Parker (fictional Spiderman character). After that, I went and saw another school called "Public School 164" which is the elementary school where Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel both went and was where they first got to know each other while participating in a production of Alice and Wonderland.

Check out my next video to see my travel to Queen College, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, USTA National Tennis Center, and Citi Field.
