Totally understand. Japan, Yangtze...both are on our bucket lists and we don't mind being guinea pigs. Some folks from my office (who are Indian) say the way to do India is via the new Royal Palace train for a week. It is about $7K all inclusive then to go south as well as to a safari park. That's on the bucket list too. We also have to do Butan,Cambodia, Galapagos and Machu Picchu. These are our must do's over the next few years after Antarctica.
