Going back to any year

If there was a time a I could go back to the time Japan when it reopened because America force them to reopen so that they could trade with them. And be one of the people standing on the beach when the big American steam boats came with the steam coming out. And seeing all the new items that they brought and the white people. And all the changes that happened and everyones ractions. I would be exited and curiouse. I would also like to experiance that time while the Japanese Emperer was trying to catch up with the rest of the world with inventions and all that stuff that they had gotten behind on because they had closed there doors the the world.
