In this DVD
Rob and Marg McAlister's trip around Australia is officially under way, and in this trip the adventuresome duo travel from Coffs Harbour on the New South Wales north coast to Noosa on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. In Coffs, Rob and Marg check out the Big Banana and then challenge each other to a go-cart race at the Raleigh International Raceway. From here, they travel through Grafton to the idyllic seaside town of Yamba for some R&R. Byron Bay and sea kayaking with dolphins is next on the itinerary before continuing north to Tweed Heads, the Glasshouse Mountains and the famous Ettamogah Pub. The Eumundi Markets and a few very unique Sunshine Coast attractions cap off this leg of Rob & Marg's lap of Australia. Besides fun activities and beautiful scenery, we also bring you helpful tech features from Steinbauer on the company's engine enhancement module, and from Polaris on how to install a GPS and reversing camera to your rig. Come along and join us on this jam-packed journey!
