Here's an idea, if you're up to a lot of walking: Going into the city,
take the Airtrain to Howard Beach, then the subway to downtown Brooklyn,
either Jay St. / Borough Hall or High St. / Brooklyn Bridge. Walk across
the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan. If you feel like taking a bit more
time, walk through Brooklyn Heights and along the promenade that overlooks
the East River, on your way to the bridge. Then you can explore downtown
Manhattan, ride the subway up to midtown, explore a bit more, and finally
take the LIRR and Airtrain back to the airport.
