It is strange that .gtk-bookmarks is not in your home folder and you are still seeing Documents, Music, Pictures, etc. in the "Places" menu.
The ~/.gtk-bookmarks file actually stores the nautilus bookmarks, which show up in the "Places" menu.

One thing that you might want to try is:
Start nautilus
Then right-click on a folder such as "Pictures"
Choose "Open with other application..."
Select "File Browser"
Make sure "Remember this application [...]" is checked

Your "Places" menu should then work as expected.
Hope this helps...
