The Big Pineapple was a favorite of mine. Not only is it an awesome giant pineapple, you can also go inside! And learn! As you climb the spiral staircase to the top (there’s a look out over the plantation), you get to read about pineapples, their production, and various pineapple products. The displays are charmingly homemade and a bit past their prime. You also get to see the labels from old cans of pineapple, and I really love stuff like that.
If kitsch isn’t your thing, you can also visit the market or eat a famous sundae. We did neither but the pineapple is still a winner in my book!
Big Thing: Pineapple
Location: Woombye, Queensland

Driving distances in Queensland can get pretty long, so if I didn’t sufficiently tempt you with promises of pineapple knowledge and sundaes, you’ll probably stop anyway!
xo, jill
OMG! That looks fantastic/looks like Spongbob’s House lol. If I ever end up in Australia, I will most definitely go here
This series of posts will never get old!
Yay! Sadly I don’t think we’ll be visiting anymore big things, but I’ve still got quite a few to share!
I know! I wonder how many kids wonder where Sponge Bog is when they visit?
