My bad, pdedse. Should be good now.
It does work now. I do enjoy the maps as much as the photos, although usually after I begin the virtual exploring I get "off topic" and 30 minutes later I'm checking out places I've never heard of, imagining how it is to live there, to ride there, what the people must be like, etc.
This time Lord Howe Island caught my eye, about 450 nautical miles from Brisbane...I had never heard of it.
My goodness! Have to ask, have you ever been there?

Looks like there are flights there, but I also saw in a photo a number of sail boats / yachts near the island. Would that be something you could sail to in yours? Internet says 4-5 days sail time.
Looks like there's great hiking, surfing, scuba-diving

Likely I'll never make it there, but I love to dream of trips. Sailing the South Pacific has always been one of mine.
Yep, it's 30 minutes later...
