The date of Captain Cook's landing is recorded as having occurred on April 29, 1770. The plaque on the Captain Cook monument at Botany Bay National Park has April 28, 1770, as the date of this landing. This difference in dates may be due to the use of nautical, as opposed to civil, dates at the time of Captain Cook's voyage. unionflag
