Lunar Eclipse on April 15th

Hi All,

I'm new to astronomy and am wondering about the lunar eclipse viewing possibilities for Adelaide on Tuesday.

Does anyone know the best place to view "all six minutes" of totality around Adelaide Or will only the Eastern states be the only lucky ones? eg Sydney gets a whopping 20 minutes!

Excerpt from http://astroblogger.blogspot.com.au/2014/04/total-lunar-eclipse-april-15 2014.html (painfully formatted, hope it comes out ok)
City Moonrise Sunset Maximum Eclipse Totality End Eclipse End
Adelaide c 5:48 pm 5:52 pm 5:16 pm 5:54 pm 7:03 pm
Sydney 5:28 pm 5:33 pm 5:48 pm 6:25 pm 7:33 pm

Cheers,
Claire.
