Papeete is one of the largest cities in the Pacific Islands. That makes it the largest city in Tahiti. Papeete is also the capital of Tahiti. Since Suva is the capital of Fiji, you're not going there, Port Moresby is in Papua New Guinea, and Apia is located in the Pacific Islands in Samoa.

Answer: Attu Island, Alaska

Attu is a small barely inhabited island that is the last to celebrate the new year. Attu is actually closer the Asian continent than Tonga, but because of the weaving of the International Dateline, Tonga comes first, and Attu Island is last.

10. Since you are in Alaska now, you decide to explore the string of islands protruding from the Alaskan coastline, before your flight home. These islands are called...

Answer: The Aleutian Islands

These islands are named for the Aleutian Indians who once, and still partially do, inhabit the area. Most are uninhabited, but when you find a small town there, it's the quaintest thing in the world. How was your trip did you have a good time? I hope you did.
