Hi, I'm currently in Caceres, but only have 30 minutes computer time so will just do this one short! post. I will post my albergue experiences when I get home.
The path into Torremejia appears to have been extended by the need to walk along a railway track for a while, what seemed a long while. there was a bridge under the railway but when I looked inder it seemed very overgrown on the other side, so I followed a cyclist who had just passed me, and walked up to a bridge over the track. There was a sign just before the bridge which seemed to indicate following a path and then scrambling up an embankment, my scrambling days are long gone, so I followed the track round to the bridge, which was also signed. This was the last sign! I noticed that the people who had been behind me dissappeared so they must have felt that the path under the railway was passable. Once in Torremejia I turned left and walked around until I came to the main road and then asked for directions to the albergue.
The hospitalero said that there used to be signs but that there haven't been for a while.
Coming out of Torremejia, there was a sign just out of town which seemed to require one to walk down a bank, so I carried on on the road until it got a bit flatter. The path runs parallel to the road until the cross roasds, a guy working in a field told me the path stopped so I returned to the road, the arrows on the road were ambiguous, I felt I was making it up as I went along. The first proper signs came after about 3 kms and then it was OK.
