I'll give you some advice (that others may disagree with), stay away from Madrid unless your looking to pick up a hooker, get your quota of pollution of the month or are looking for some of that fine, European crack rock. Because aside from a few great museums, it sucks pretty hard IMO. Barcelona is amazing, great city with tons to do (and see, some amazing architecture), day and night. I’ve never been to Mallorca but Seville is another amazing place that I would highly recommend, Valencia also gets high marks from me. Not sure that you’d even consider it given the tight timeframe, but Lisbon, Portugal is, IMO, the only city in the region that challenges (but still loses) Barcelona in terms of things to see and do as well as great food and nightlife.

Amsterdam is Amsterdam, smoke some dope (green text..?), wander around the amazing city, see some awesome museums and eat some of their amazing food. One of the best museums (IMO, Van Gogh is the best) isn’t listed above though, and that is the Rijks Museum. Tons of great art, more Rembrandt then I have ever seen in one place.
