World’s Largest Ball of Sisal Twine Built by One Person

Stopped here because my daughter had heard about it and wanted to see it. The park across the street was a nice place for a picnic lunch. It is impressively large and a nice drive through the country to and from Darwin, but not really worth an extra trip.

I have been here twice. I visited a few years ago when my dad heard the weird al' song. I thought it was pretty lame to be honest but it was still a nice roadtrip. As a jokeme and some of my friends decided to go on a road trip there and I found it much more fun. My advice is to have an open mind about it and treat it as it is. It is just a large ball of twine joke around about it. I'm planning on returning with my friends and rromate this summer to get a chance to actually go into the gazebo to see the twine ball. The gazebo does make pictures difficult to take. If you end up going there and the gift shop is closed stop by The Blue Moose bar and they sell them there. they were fairly cheep I bought a shot glass and a miniature ball of twine for $8.

Out of the way but fun and cute!

Fun place to stop and stretch your legs. Off the beaten path. Got us out of some interstate driving going to stops like this. Not a bad thing. Not well marked, drove past it and had to double back. Glare on the glass made pictures difficult unless you put your camera to the glass.

You can not see through the glass to take a pod picture because of the reflection. If I had known this maybe I would not have stopped. Still a cute thing to see.
