There are a lot of posts about going back in time. How about going back in time for a day to an era gone by.

No. I don't care for history.

Spend an entire day walking the streets. Going through stores. Having lunch at an old restaurant. Watching the people and listening to what they are talking about. Maybe going to a car dealership and test driving your favorite classic car when it was bran new. Would you consider that a fun day? You would be the same age you are now and provided with the appropriate attire of the day. You can't change history and this is just for a day. You would be back home that evening.

Silly as this sounds,i would wish to watch a huge Napoleonic era battle,like Waterloo,Eylau or Borodino.We have old jerky footage from WW1,in black and white.WW2 there is some colour footage.But obviously no film of the Napoleonic era.
There would have been over maybe 30000 men on both sides in quite a small area,in garishly coloured uniforms,all marching over the fields and cannon and huge cavalry forces charging here and there,it would have been an awe inspiring sight.If you could have stood on a hilltop in the distance and just observed.

@wonkywinky we could have holidays to ancient Rome to the Colleseum or Watch the Mongols invade China

@wonkywinky You'd see a lot of horrors...battles of those times were filled with cannon balls blowing off heads, guts on the ground, and all the screaming...
