Thanks, stormbird, we'll have to add Parkes to the list of places to go. Thanks, Mel for the reccs of where you thought the best places are. I'll have to get a map of Western Australia and scope it out. Cold water, though, hmmmmm. I didn't know that WA water was cold, like in the US--the Pacific is cold, even though people think of Los Angeles as the beach capital, well, the water is COLD! And don't even think of going in the water here in Washington.
