Thanks, that's exactly the kind of info I was hoping for. I know the timing isn't great, but my schedule is fixed. I'm an evening observer anyway, often with my son, so I didn't make too much of the moon phase, but I more than understand not heading for a dark site that weekend. On my first trip down under, though, I have to make whatever attempt I can, so I thought I could at least get out of Sydney.

I finally read the Southern Hemisphere chapter of Turn Left at Orion (it was too depressing to read before now), and it looks like there's some good stuff for binos this time of year. I'll have to play around with Stellarium a bit, too.
