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

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. They make the Eiffel Tower and statue of Liberty look second rate.

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?
