If you could be a “fly on the wall” anywhere and at any time in history, where and when would you choose?
Owing to my curiosity I was unable to decide on just one moment to spy on—too many options. Instead I choose an acrostic poem with my various ideas—some are a little out there but the knowledge gained from each experience would have been amazing.
Flying with Amelia Earhart across the Atlantic Ocean as the first woman to go solo
Landing on the moon
Yellowstone’s super-volcano last eruption in 1350 BC
Observing Michelangelo paint the Sistine Chapel
Normans adventures and conquests

Historic occasion of the Berlin Wall coming down
End of World War II

Lunch with the royal family just being themselves—no protocol or formalities
Best response to a prompt I’ve yet read. Really like how you used that.
Thank you that is an honour.
Excellent post! Though even a fly might not have survived n° 3, depending how close it was 🙂
Thanks you are probably right but it would be interesting to understand the process of a major volcanic eruption.
Absolutely. All your choices are great, in fact, but if I was forced to choose just one, I think it would be Michelangelo.
Loved it!!!!
