All eyes are turning to the land down under as they prepare to host the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. If you're wondering about the people, the food, the culture, and what wildlife might kill you while you're watching the modern pentathlon or synchronized swimming, then pick up Bill's new book, "In A Sunburned Country." Bill's hit all the attractions so you don't have to. Take a train into the outback, snorkel along the Great Barrier Reef, then stop at one of the many roadside attractions.

Listen in and you'll find that Australia is much more than Baywatch with cricket.
