I love the idea of Easter Island, but the only other location in South America that currently interests us much is Buenos Aires. Not sure we'd get enough out of adding that continent...

We have not seen that part of Australia yet, so that's on our "definite maybe" list.

We have not been to Egypt and I would love to see the pyramids, Luxor, etc. My husband is so-so on it. I think he's a little concerned about safety, but I'm really not too worried.

Japan is a definite on this trip. We've spent a bit over a week in Tokyo and it's one of our favorite cities, but we haven't explored much of the rest of the country.

Can you say a little more about why? I really hadn't considered Indonesia at all.
Thanks for some thought provoking suggestions.
