Definitely doing some Fado and Lisbon and some Flamenco in Seville and/or Jerez. I've been to these places back in the early '80's and loved them, but haven't been since and my wife has never been. My older son as well as my daughter and son-in-law both took vacations in Andalusia over the past couple of years and loved it too. The Alhambra in Seville is one of the most awesome things I've ever seen. The Seville cathedral and the Mezquita in Cordoba are both great as well.
