DAY 7 - LE PETIT ANDELY TO PORT-MORT

After yet another wonderful breakfast, which this time followed a fantastic dinner of local specialities, at our chambre d'hôte (Aux Fenêtres du Château), we walked across the Seine and followed the GR2 up to the Château Gaillard.

Those who don't know the history of the Château Gaillard can read about it on site
We stayed there for quite a while, exploring the ruins, reading the information boards and taking in the views.

Magnificent views of the Seine and Les Andelys from the Château Gaillard 
When we were ready to move on, we followed the path southwards. It continued uphill for a while, and away from the river, before descending to the village of Bouafles. We then followed a bend in the Seine to our overnight stop at Port-Mort.

Moving on from the Château Gaillard 
After checking in to our accommodation,  we went for a walk around the village, and found a boulangerie where we were able to find provisions for the afternoon.

Some healthy fruit for afternoon tea
