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)

I second [livejournal.com profile] tsgeisel. When I last flew down to the big D, I rented a car. It was cheaper than taking the shuttle (there were 4 of us and the shuttle charged per person) and it gave us some flexibility for food, since we weren't limited to places that were local (and therefore pricey).

Our accommodation provided free parking and was close enough to walk to our destinations, so it ended up being pretty cost effective.

Have fun, I wish I were going with you.

We seriously looked into it, but it seems like there are no rental places open that late in the area.

One other option... a short cab ride from downtown to LAX, where there are 24-hour car rentals. $20 cab plus $30 compact rental is still cheaper than the shuttle, and with no time pressures.

Hmmm... That might be best, yes. I will look into that.
