A: Where did you go for the Christmas holidays?
B: I went to the USA. I wanted to leave London's cold winter behind, so I chose California, where the average temperature is never below 21°C.

A: Did you have a good time?
B: Not in Los Angeles. Surprisingly, the weather wasn't warm enough. If it had been warmer, I wouldn't have caught a cold.

A: What a pity! Did you have a fever as well?
B: Yes, and I also had a sore throat. I had to call the doctor. The doctor told me to stay in bed, so I did as he said. If I hadn't stayed in bed, I wouldn't have recovered in time to go to San Francisco. Luckily, I had already visited LA before. So as soon as I got better, I went to San Francisco.

A: What's San Francisco like?
B: Oh, I think it's fantastic. I wish I lived there! But I will go back as soon as I can. I might go during the summer holidays. Surely it will be warmer at that time. I've got some friends there who like surfing, so I will be surfing with them all day long during the summer.

A: I didn't know you could surf.
B: I have been surfing all my life. I really enjoy it! I've always enjoyed doing all kinds of water sports.
