Well, I did pretty good on the America list.  But only one from the World list although I have been to the Cayman Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands, Victoria Canada, Palau, Guam and Yap.

Grand Canyon
Kauai
Lake Tahoe 
Big Sur
Denali
Monument Valley
Mount Rushmore 
San Francisco Bay Area
Yellowstone 
Yosemite 
Statue of Liberty
Vancouver 
 
Edited to Add Vancouver from the World list.  I just remembered that my cruise to Alaska left from Vancouver.

Having been there, I have no idea why Mt. Rushmore is on the list. Depending on how many drinks I have in me, I have some lackluster comments I'd be willing to make about a few other destinations, at the risk of being accused of hating America.

Charleston? I love the area but not in competition with some of the other areas on the list.

and to address the lack of east coast spots. Charleston over Boston or NYC? I don't get it.

Only 2- so sad (but I've seen a good chunk of Ireland, including the Burren, which should have been mentioned).

Just the Statue of Liberty and Praha (correct spelling of "Prague"
