honeymooner, WOW! 7 cities in about 8 days! Now that's a whirlwind tour! And when will you be taking your 4 days of rest-and-relaxation??? I wouldn't expect you would have ANY time for R&R, much less any remaining energy for anything else after so much travelling. Hehheeehehee..
I really enjoyed Córdoba when I visited in 1998 during Semana Santa (Holy Week) on our way to Sevilla. La Judería (old, jewish quarter) is VERY nice, kind of a smaller version of Sevilla's barrio Santa Cruz.
Info on Córdoba:
http://www.andalucia.com/cities/cordoba.htm I'm sure if you're in Córdoba that you'll want to visit La Mezquita (the mosque). This place is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! There are hundreds of arches similar to those in La Alhambra of Granada.
Not far from La Mezquita there's a street called "Calle de Las Flores". It's a very narrow, pedestrian-only street, whitewashed walls, and many MANY flower bloxes lining the street. At the end is a small patio/plaza. From the patio you'll look back down the street and, THIS IS A GREAT PHOTO-OP(ortunity), see the tower of the cathedral near the end. This scene can be seen on the MadridMan's Córdoba/Sevilla Video (details @

MadridMan also HIGHLY recommends the website:
http://www.Andalucia.com - THE premier website for ALL that is Andalucia. In 1999 I visited the offices/techcenter and the creators of Andalucia.com in/near Marbella in the province of Málaga & had a drink with them at a nearby bar. They were all VERY nice people. I hope to visit again. IN FACT, 2 months ago they offered me a web-designer job (yes, FOR REAL), but I couldn't accept it because the pay was just a bit too....low. Hindsight says I probably should have taken it, but I'm working on finding a job IN MADRID!! We'll see....
(cross your fingers)
Saludos, MadridMan
