This sign, which in theory gives us the name of the village and the distance to Santiago, is actually no help whatsoever. I defy you to find a village with this name on a map anywhere near Samos or Sarria. The distance marker &#8211; if it&#8217;s accurate &#8211; puts us about 3km or so from the edge of Sarria and perhaps a kilometer or so from the village of Vigo de Sarria, where many of the routes merge. In any case, it was about 11:30 so we stopped into the local caf\u00e9 and grabbed some late elevenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"765\"
