%$#@!

There are NO viable transportation options from Union Station in LA to Anaheim after 10 PM tonight.
I hate the idea of taking a cab, which will probably cost about $130.

Arrg!!!

Our original plan involved a friend picking us up, but she backed out after we had already booked the bus, and it was too late to change at that point.

Edit: We HAVE looked into:
- taking the train (10 minutes to catch a train is not enough, especially when you are not sure the bus will arrive on time)
- having a shuttle pick us up (cost $78 a person because it is not a standard route)
- taking the Metro (unless I am wrong, it stops running at 8 PM)
- renting a car (there are no rental places still open that late in that area)

at worst, take red line at union station to blue line to long beach, or exit blue line at imperial to green line to norwalk and get cab from there. If I had a car I'd both join and pick up.

Does it run late enough? I thought the last train left at 8. Perhaps I am thinking of something different, and if so, please enlighten me. The website is not clear enough for me to understand.

Is there something a little later than that? We arrive at 10, assuming the bus is on time, but I expect it will take more than 7 minutes to find the Red Line, having never been there.
