Hey OLD FART,
Guess your rite that I could have looked at a map before responding, altho my reference to "other side" didn't really imply North\South, East\West, or the other side of the Great Barrier Reef. Just to my little mind (my state is only 150x300 mi appx) 1200 miles is pretty big, and I really didn't realize just how big Australia is . . . . . . Why it's almost as big as . . . . . !!!
