I've been so fortunate in my lifetime to have been to so many places (all 50 states, 5 continents) but there are hundreds in that 1000 Places book that I've not yet covered. They would have to include:
Sweden/Scandanavia (my ancestors)
Antarctica
African photo safari
St Petersburg Russia
Angkor Wat Cambodia
Singapore
Too many to try to name...
Enjoy your travels, everyone!

I have the book and have been fortunate to see many - but not all with husband. We are saving a lot of American sites for our dotage (coming too soon I am afraid) as many US places are more accessible. Bit the short list of dream destinations (next 10 years)
Great Barrier Reef (snorkeling)
New Zealand's South Island
Great Wall of China
African photo safari
Greece
Italy from Rome south
This continent:
Canadian Rockies
Alaska cruise and beyond

Okay, Since I have not seen so many places, I need more than 3 for my list!!!!!
Places yet to go in no particular order:
Bora Bora (Tahiti)
Austrailia
China (the orient)
England
Spain
Austria
Greek Islands
Germany
Ireland
Italy
Portugal
Yosemite National Park
Colorado-the rocky mountains
Canada (went as a child)
African Safari/Middle East (if the world ever calms down)
That is all I can think of off the top of my head. I think I need to get this book. Sounds like I will get even more ideas!

So many places, so little time.
Istanbul
Portugal
The pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela
are 3 places neither my husband nor I have visited yet that have been on our list for quite a while.
Interesting to see Petra on several lists. The day after we returned from a week long trip to Rome our 16 year old announced that Petra was his next choice.
rphsims1--I hope you have a great foliage trip to New England and that the leaves and weather are spectacular for you this fall. Conditions do vary from year to year.

I have been very fortunate to travel to a few different countries and every time I think about those trips, I get a smile on my face! 
Three places to see before I die?
I would like to visit Chicago again as I haven't been since I was a wee lass.
Hawaii
Mt. Everest
