Previous knowledge

My friends and I are deciding where to go on vacation. We're arguing about the weather! My friend, Kim, wants to go to London. She says it's a beautiful city with lots of things to do. I think it's wet, cold, and foggy. I don't want to go there. Another friend, Pablo, wants to go to Mexico City. He says it's very interesting and the food is great. I like Mexican food, but I think it's hot and dry in Mexico City. I really don't want to go there! Our other friend, Emma, wants to go to Sydney. She says it's a fantastic city with beautiful beaches. I think it's warm and sunny in Sydney, but I also think it's a long, expensive flight. I'm not sure if I want to go there. So, where do we want to go? We all like warm, sunny weather. We all want to swim, but we don't want to be too hot. And we all want to eat delicious food. We're thinking about going to Barcelona.
