G'day Graham

I hate to mention this, but your highly precise location details don't  
work.  If I go to Google Earth and search on your details I'm offered  
strange places all over the globe.  If I search for swimming pool  
Maroubra I get offered the Maroubra swimming school and the Des  
Renford pool.  Neither points are actually indicating swimming pools  
but suburban houses (this is of course not your doing and I don't want  
to start in on a rant about people who put things in the wrong places  
on Google Earth).
There is a pool on the corner of Jersey Road and Robey Streets.  It  
has a nice big car-park and appears to be in the correct Milky Way  
quadrant.  However it is nearly 2 km inland.  Is this where you saw  
the Northern Giant Petrel and a shark and Humpback Whales?
I'd like to see locations indicated with a Google Earth .kmz file as  
proposed by Russell Woodford recently (see attached).
Cheers
Steve
