Long Beach, California

No good Public Transport out of Long Beach really, how do I get to South Pasadena without breaking the bank.... Took $20 cab from Airport to Metro Blue Line, to Red Line in Downtown, to Gold Line to South Pasadena. 10 minute walk home. Took about 1.5 hours, TJ's was still open so I could get milk for the house. Not Bad for $23.75, cab is $75.00!
