After our Cairns run we headed north for a 4 night stay at the rather fabulous Silky Oaks Lodge. It was just a few minutes drive from a small town called Mossman but it felt a million miles away from everything.

We had a little treehouse and actually did very little while we were there.

I went snorkelling in the Mossman river twice

and we walked the grounds a fair bit often bumping into the brush turkeys (we’ve called them all Brian)

We also took part in a couple of the morning yoga classes which were a great way to start the day.

On our second day there we had a trip to north of the Daintree River for a 4 hour guided rainforest walk which was just amazing.

So it’s not like we did no exercise, we just didn’t run….
