If you do take the cab, you need to know.. some cab drivers jipps u off with their ticker that calculates how much it cost by mile, ft etc. Make sure the tickers at 0 cause, last time one of my friends paid 10-20 dollars more then my other friend who came from like same distances. It sounds cheap, but ull be pretty pissed if u experience it.
Instead of the american taxi cabs call in the korean taxi cab drivers. They like pick you up in like toyota or lexus vans doesnt have any tickers that calculates the cost per traveled. All it has is a navigation system, and a set price. Last time i called them was when i was at UCI visiting friends. From Irvine to Los Angeles the taxi ride was just $100, sounds alot but alot/dead cheaper then american taxi drivers
^I know.. i'm really thinking about my travel methods in LA. I was seriously thinking about the bus or metro... but OH GOSH. I HAVE NO CLUE how to read those things/routes. Especially b/c i don't even know where to start.

I really need someone who knows LA..

. Thanks for the tip on the ticker too! I had that happen to me in Hawaii one time, but we eventually convinced the guy to set a still price for us.

.. I don't know if it would be necessary to call a korean taxi cab.... The drive is just about 10mins away from each other... I don't know.. And, perhaps if i spoke korean hehe. Thanks though!!!^^

You shouldn't take a cab in LA, it isn't as common as it is in like NYC or anything.
The bus, the Metro, more people use it, doesn't rip you off unless you're going to a place like 2 minutes away lol , less than 2 dollars one trip. Get a map and you'll know which routes to take.
^And.. i researched my route already.. from the LAX Amtrak to HB, it would take only 10mins.. Counting all the mileages will be hectic..
And like i mentioned w/ all the maps/routes and not knowing locations in LA..

i don't know what to do. Need a buddy that knows LA

.
Is anyone planning to arrive via Amtrak??? I know my sister found a buddy to pair up w/ us.. but it'll still be kind of hard since we're all not familiar w/ the LA area. >_< As of now.. i'm sure i'll be arriving around 2:30-ish in LA.. so i was wondering when the concert starts..^^
Thanks for all your help so far. =)
