The Canadian McIntosh is well promoted in the Big Apple but, in fact, the parks bakers use only northern spy apples for their deep-dish pies, apple cake and almond-apple cheesecake. Everything is in apple-pie order at Big Apples gift shop, which has scores of apple-related items, from T-shirts displaying the theme parks mascot, Mr.

Applehead, to hummingbird feeders looking like large red apples. There are apple necklaces and magnets, wind chimes and golf caps, candy apple kits and apple clocks. WE TRY AND GET as many Ca nadian-made apple items as we can, says shop manager Aileen Rutherford. Both Colborne and nearby Brighton capitalize on the many apple orchards in the area. Colborne hangs large, cut-out red apples from its Main Street lamp posts, a rosy apple is used on the Colborne Chronicle's masthead, and a three-di mensional sculpture of an apple, adorned with a heart, stands in the centre of a flowerbed in the towns park.

Temples fees tumble By Deutsche Presse PHNOM PENH, Cambodia The Cambodian government has decided to cut entrance charges to the Angkor temples in northwest Cambodia. The order to cut prices came after-tourists were outraged at paying $100 to Angkor Tourism for a day-trip to the three major attractions Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and the Bayon. The bill for temple entrance, lunch, car, driver and guide will change to $65 to $75 a head.

George Boycott was in Australia when he came across the biggest pineapple in the world. The image of this eye-arresting fruit stuck in his mind.

Years later, when he moved to Canada, he decided to create the biggest apple in the world. Completed five years ago at a cost of $80,000, the Big Apple is now the centrepiece of a burgeoning theme park owned by six Colborne-area entrepreneurs. Boycott himself is not among them, having sold his shares in the park. The Big Apple, a McIntosh, is clearly visible to travellers on Highway 401 at Colborne, about 130 km east of Toronto. IT STANDS more than 10 metres tall, is 11 metres wide and weighs more than 42 tonnes.

Its made of foam insulation material sprayed on to mesh that is supported on a framework of steel reinforcing rods. Its quite an apple, says general manager Alf Whittaker, one of the owners. Inside the apple, visitors learn the McIntosh is the one true Canadian apple and that all Macs originate from a tree that grew in Dundela, Ont. Glass-framed honeycombs inside the Big Apple show the life of honey bees and their role in pollinating apple trees. Peer into a small viewing tube tagged Exit Ramp and industrious bees can be seen both entering and leaving the hive.

Standing on the observation platform atop the apple, visitors can see Lake Ontario to the south, as well as the theme parks 11 hectares and neighboring farms. Unlike many theme parks, there is no glitz and glamor at the Big Apple park, which is open every day except Christmas. We want to keep the country setting, Whittaker says. Admission is free. The park features a 10-minute Garden of Eden walk (with the apples but without the serpent); a zoo area with pygmy goats, llamas and fallow deer, and a pond stocked with goldfish; minigolf; a basketball game called Bank Shot; a duck pond; and a restaurant and gift shop.
