I would like to visit Africa before European colonization.

I’d like to visit Rome when it was doing well.
I have long wanted to see a Triceratops.
Back when human global population was less than a billion maybe.
If it has to be in the past, it would be the period right after that planetary collision ripped a huge chunk out of the planet, and when the newly forming moon and earth are doing their post collision dance whole both collect their debris.

My dirty city was America’s cleanest city for decades, but that’s hard to imagine now.
I would like to see some of the familiar places in my city as they were about 1930, or maybe 1929 before the crash. I’d do a heckuva lot of exploring familiar streets and neighborhoods

Simpler times for me are tarnished with memories of the very inconveniences which propelled science and inventions forward.
