Les Andelys, France


This morning started with us leaving Rouen and headed toward Les Andelys.  Morning offering were a briefing our the next day's disembarkation and a cooking demonstration.  I watched the disembarkation gathering on the cabin TV and decided to read the information in the Viking Daily.









 
Upon arrival we could see Chateau Gaillard from our window.  After lunch we headed off on a tour of the Chateau.   As you can tell by the photo, we had to hike up a large hill.



This display was at the bottom of the hill.






Loved this warning sign that showed us all the places we could fall.


The next 6 photos capture the view from right to left once we got to the top of the hill.






At the base of the ramp leading up into the Keep was a path leading down to a view platform

Once we walked down, we looked back at the castle

The platform was surrounded by informational panels.


Looking from right... 


to left.  We could see our ship docked by the town. 











Once back down the hill, it was time to hit the public toilets.  Very basic and they were out of toilet paper.  During this trip I went to a few public toilets without seats.

It wouldn't be an old French home if it was half-timbered.

nor an old French town without an old church.
