On the day I was born
Happy T13!
My 13 isn’t up yet, but to answer your question, I think I’d like to travel in the Blue Box, like Dr. Who does. That seems quite fun, or the Wardrobe would be nice, not so bumpy! lol
Fun list!! Happy Thursday!
Yes — a good trick to know how to do!!
I go meet Jamie from the Outlander series using stone similar to Stonehenge.
I am so there when the transporter becomes available for sale.
I use the DeLorean method ..
What a great idea! I think I’d like to travel just about 90 days into the future. I’d know if exercise and salad helped me lose weight, and other great life mysteries I’m currently wrestling with.
That’s fantastic! The wardrobe and the Delorean have always been two of my favorites.
Happy TT.
I’d love to visit the middle ages, ancient Egypt… so many places and times!
My #51 teaches you about the provinces of The Netherlands!
You know, time travel doesn’t appeal to me at all….it’s dangerous stuff judging by Dr. Who and some of the others. But if I had to go, I’d like to use #1 (the tardis)
Ha great list…I only leanred how to change the time on my blog posts like, last week. You did a great instruction diagram and everything nice work.
My TT list is ehtw orst record cover albums…
Hope you get a chance to drop by!
Have a great weekend!

What a freakin’ awesome post!
I especially love how you entered the corresponding shows/books with each time traveling device.
SWEET!
Thanks for sharing.
Happy TT!
LOL. I’ll leave the “timey wimey” stuff to the experts. Happy TT.
I did my second thursday thirteen going BACK into time…
My top one would be to the pyramids.
I think I’d go forward to find out how they eventually cure diabetes.
Thanks for the info…Im going to try it right now and see if Im not too blonde to figure it out:) Happy TT!!
Heeheehee…it worked!! Thank you and if I had to travel in time…Id go back to the 50’s…it looked like a fun time to live in:)
LOVE it, Mark! what a great bit of humor you added in there.
I love your TT! Reminds me of how my DH would answer the same question, LOL!
Love 13 & 14. I’d go to 1985,
Great way to ‘pass time’…
Ours is up as well, if you want to stop by…

I’ll go with the transporter, too! Happy TT!
I’ve always wanted to cross the international date line and go a day ahead or behind. Rather boring compared to yours, I know, but something fun, nonetheless.
Love the idea and love your ideas and the shows you took them from. I especially enjoyed the last 4 ideas. Very clever. I daydream all the time.
I love the Lion Witch and the Wardrobe, that would be a cool thing to do. I would probably want to travel back to high school, I had so much fun!
*That* is a cool list.
Where would I go if I could travel in time? What an awesome question and why don’t have an answer handy. I’m gonna have to think about this…wow, I suck!!
Very clever!
I’m liking 12 and 14…
Great list! It’s always tomorrow here.
Kewl!
Wonderful, beautiful list. My method of choice isn’t listed – Tesseract, from A Wrinkle in Time.
I was going to be concerned if the DeLorean did not get mentioned.
I would probably go back to just before the start of college and see if I could change some decisions ive made.
great list! I haven’t read/seen some of those, but the DeLorean is a great one!
I would go back to sleep.
Ah, a bit of a smart ass. I love it! Congrats on your recent short story’s acceptance!
How about a little train ride Ah LA Back to The Future 3?
Great List
Cindi
Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my TT!
I love your lists – this one was great fun. (You forgot self hypnosis after purging your immediate area of reminders of the current time/date, a la “Somewhere in Time”)
As for me, I’d like to visit Paris in the 1920’s, but only if I knew I could get “home.”
Cool list! I would like to go back to colonial America – just for a couple of hours. I really prefer modern conveniences.
Good list. I am with wordpress and have been frustrated at posting on Wednesday, then doing my TT and posting after midnight only to have Wednesday’s date on it, and it looks like I have no Thursday post. I will see what we have for that purpose. I prefer most of your methods however.
I think I’d go in a zap of electricity like in Terminator, although with the annoying part of leaving your clothes behind. LOL!
Happy TT!
Thanks for visiting my TT.
A DeLorean would be my first choice for time travel or just running to the store for that matter. I think they are cute.
But a good book is a priceless way to travel through time. And you don’t have to worry about getting eaten by a dinosaur, one of your parents having a crush on you, getting caught in a war zone or any of those pesky little problems with real time travel.
What an inspired list!
Man I love Doctor Who. I’d be in that TARDIS so fast you wouldn’t see me move!
What a creative post for TT!! Too cute, I love the last one
