| Video Discription | Staying in Anaheim for your business or vacation such as the Anaheim Marriott? Be sure to add some fun to your trip by heading to Los Angeles for the day by transit. From the Anaheim Convention Center hotel, you can do a Anaheim Resort Transportation via point to point service on their app A Way We Go app for $6 per day, or take OC Bus 50 line to Anaheim train station for $2.50 cash or $2 with OC Bus app. However, transfers are included for both Amtrak Pacific Surfliner & Metrolink. To Los Angeles per way is $16 on Amtrak or $8.75 on Metrolink, which Metrolink has more commuter schedules to & from LA, while Amtrak is throughout the day. Transfers are included with both agencies for ART & OC Bus. After a nice train ride, we are in Los Angeles at Union Station. Be sure to buy a TAP card, the contactless transit card for Los Angeles County for $2, as you get two hour transfers & fare day caps of $5 for LA Metro. First stop at USC/Expo Park, we will take the LA Metro A line light rail towards Long Beach and the transfer to Little Tokyo & transfer to the E line to Santa Monica. At Expo Park/USC, we exit for USC & the many attractions such as the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, California Science Center, LA Memorial Coliseum, BMO Stadium, and more. Continuing along the E light rail line you can continue all the way down the line to Santa Monica, or what I did was exit at Culver City to take the Culver CityBus 1 line to Venice Beach. Venice Beach has the promenade that is lined with touristy shops, restaurants, sidewalk vendors, and even bike & skateboard rentals. Along with a separated bikeway and even a skatepark. Jogging from Venice Beach to Santa Monica Pier is 2.5 miles along the pedestrian promenade. The first mile is in Venice where you are bombarded with loud music from stores and vendors vying for your attention to their products. The rest of the 1.5 miles is in the city of Santa Monica where buildings are pushed back, and the pedestrian & bike path is in between the beach and either grass areas or parking lots. The Santa Monica Pier opened in 1909, which now features many shops, restaurants, Heal the Bay Aquarium, a historic carousel, and Pacific Park. I ate lunch at the Albright, a counter service seafood restaurant where I had the fish tacos and they were good! From Santa Monica Pier, I walked up .4 miles up Colorado Street to 5th Avenue, which is the terminus for the LA Metro E line. However, we need to get a bus to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Colorado/5th Street is the start of the LA Metro Rapid 720 and Local 20 to downtown Los Angeles via Wilshire Boulevard. This parallels the extension from Wilshire/Western to Westwood/VA Hospital, which will open in three sections in the next three years. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is an art museum that the County of Los Angeles, opened their own facility on the Miracle Mile in 1961, now with over 152,000 pieces of art At 3 pm, I started to head to Union Station for the Metrolink to Anaheim. I took the LA Metro Local 20 bus that arrived from LACMA to Wilshire/ Western to the LA Metro D line subway to LA Union station, however, I exited at Pershing Square for another train, Angels Flight Railway. Angels Flight Railway is a funicular railway in downtown Los Angeles, where passengers can take a minute ride up Bunker Hill on a piece of history. Funiculars are a type of train system in which the car is pulled up & down by a motorized corded rope system. Angels Flight dates back to 1901, forcibly dismantled in 1969, reopened in 1991. In 2013, it was closed due to an accident, and then reopened in 2017. Fare is $1 cash per way or 50 cents with a TAP card. Angels Flight was three blocks from Grand Avenue Arts/Bunker Hill LA Metro station for the A & E lines. LA Metro had to dig a hundred feet below the surface for it to be leveled with adjacent LA Metro stations and needed to use elevators. After the Metro A line train ride back to Union Station, the majority of passengers disembarked the train for their next connection, including me for the Metrolink Orange County 604 at 4:30 pm to get back to Anaheim. Back in Anaheim, I jogged back to the apartment, Angels fans just walked through the parking lot to Angel Stadium, and Anaheim Resort guests just needed to take the ART Bus or OC Bus 50 line back to the resort area. |
