Hyde Park, Sunday 29th April 2007.
On this day in 1770 His Majesty's Bark Endeavour, commanded by Lt. James Cook (later Captain), made first landfall on the Australian continent at a place now known as Botany Bay just south of Sydney. This area was deemed suitable for situating a settlement and British Colonial outpost which occurred eighteen years later with the arrival of the First Fleet. This bronze statue of Cook was erected in 1879.
