The Gentler Side of Downtown LA

Chad, Christian, and I took the Metrolink train from Irvine to LA Union again. I think it will become a regular thing because we always enjoy ourselves so thoroughly – besides the fact that we get to see art which I can write about for extra cash. We learned that there is no 8:29 am train from Irvine to LA; it’s a train just to Orange – so we have to either take the 7:10 am or the 10:37 am to get all the way to LA. We opted for the earlier train as we like to catch the 4:30 train home (the only train after that is 8:45pm).

We also discovered that our Metrolink ticket can be used all day long as a free Metro pass (normally $5). Bonus! We also had a complimentary lunch at the Omni Hotel – so it was a low-cost, but visually stimulating day.

We usually take a breather at Union Station.
