There are so many great times in history one could visit, it would be hard to pick only one. King Henry VIII's court would be great to see, and would probably be my first choice. Meideval tourneys would be awesome to behold, especially the great John Marshall. Many historic figures, Alexander the Great, Michaelangelo, Ghengis Khan or Cleopatra would be great to spy on. How about seeing some of the bibles miracles...Moses parting the Red Sea, Jesus curing the sick, or Noah in the Flood?

I would like to hang with the gang members of the "Gunpowder Plot" and watch what happened to Guy Fawkes in his foiled attempt to bomb Parliament....Observe the Cavaliers and Round heads go at it at Naseby......signing of the Magna Charter....discover what really happened to the tragic sinking of the famous "White Ship"...finally attend a Shakespeare play...Maybe Macbeth or Richard III

I'd want to see "Hamlet", as it's my favourite play, I've actually read it a few times for fun!

I'd want to be able to spy on Chaucer as he was writing The Canterbury Tales. But first and foremost, I'd want to be in Rome when Augustus returned from Egypt with Cleopatra's children. I'd want to be there to experience the Triumph, to see the building of the Pantheon, and later (much later) the Colosseum.

Oh, attending a Shakespeare play would be fabulous. Especially Hamlet, since it was said that Shakespeare played the part of the ghost!

At the Globe Theatre? As long as we didn't have to smell any of the smells and could actually understand what they were saying, it would be fun!

I wouldn't mind going back to the Middle Ages either and attending a tournament, and I definitely would like to bump into either John or William Marshal! I'd also like to go back to the 1920s, as a flapper, love the clothes. And I'd like to go way back to ancient Egypt, to see how the Pyraminds were built.

I'm reading a book about Flappers right now, definitely an interesting time.
