I liked Valencia
Lisbon is also a nice place. I wasn't impressed with madrid. Too many huge roads and all the buldings looked like banks.

Hmmm
Can't think of any other city trip I've done where I was disappointed.

Amsterdam is nice enough, just didnt "pump my nads" paris has some amazing places but the city is too big and the people are too Parisian. Edinburgh was a bit "meh" the people arent scottish enough. The weather is though which sort of made up for it.

Berlin and Palma (Majorca) were the two that really exceeded my expectations. Palma is like a Bonsai Barcelona by a lovely big harbour with a lot of winter sunshine. Great for a sunshine break in November...

I haven't been to Majorca since I was a kid, being herded into some hideous kid's club. I do remember palma being nice though.
I didn't know about it being good for winter sun. Might be good for penniless proles like me.
