I would say France as well. It's a better tournament (especially with the expansion to 24 teams) and as NBC says, it's logistically easier to get around. Brazil is a huge country and they will have matches scattered everywhere from North to South.

The easier trip would be if Portugal wins Euro 2012 you could see them in the 2013 Confederations Cup

Yes unfortunately the seeding for the World Cup and WCQ are based on those crappy rankings. For example Cuba got a bye to the semifinal round ahead of Canada. In Europe, France, Russia and Sweden will be unseeded while Norway and Greece are. That's very important in a format that allowed only one automatic qualifier from each group.
