I agree with this list! Especially, you should really visit Japan on Cherry Blossoms season!

Let's go!
I'd love to see the cherry blossoms in Japan. One of my first memories as a kid was the cherry trees in D.C. I remember them because they made such an impression!
Definitely also Victoria Falls, Ayers Rock and the Grand Canyon.

This sounds like a great book. I would love to see a Japanese garden. Thanks for recommending this book I otherwise wouldn't know about!
