There's a brand new "big thing" in Exmouth - a giant prawn, not the first I know but it's probably the only one in WA.

Ballina NSW already has the Big Prawn so they'll need a different name to that :D

The 8th wonder of the world, Coffs Harbour's BIG BANANA and the world biggest beer can at Darwin. Who says OZ lacks beautiful works of architecture. :p They make the Eiffel Tower and statue of Liberty look second rate. :p

Must be the most frightening though :)

Imagine driving from Sydney towards Brisbane, pulling into Ballina, your young child wakes up and sees ... this....

We did a day trip from Sydney to Canberra and were promised a stop off to see the Big Merino on the way back. When we got there my wife asked where all the boats were? :D
