How to get to balloon fiesta Albuquerque without a car?

Take a hot air balloon if you are upwind of the event. I do not recommend walking in the desert at night. You could go a day early from public transportation, then camp out. Or ride your bike, starting out at 3:00 am.

Why were there no contemporaneous written reports of he ascension?

Gotta love Just A Messenger's example of how a books story supports the book's story.

Kind of like "Robin Hood was a literal nobleman because it says in another part of the book that he was stripped of his lands".

Edit:~

" Not all important information was always written down"

I know right? The Romans were such bad record keepers! It's not like they wrote poetry, political satire, commentary on society, reports on military and civic efforts or anything. I bet they wouldn't even bother to write about a man-god who came along and was a total hit amongst the peasants.
