Donkey Ride in Spain 1986

This was already posted in r/wherewasthistaken: https://www.reddit.com/r/wherewasthistaken/comments/1sp0ctw/a_donkeys_back_instead_of_a_motorcycle_seat_in

These are one of the last photos of this trip without exact location. It must be between Salamanca and Simancas, probably between Tordesillas and Simancas. In 1986 there was no motorway, but on an old map I can see that the road of 1986 must have followed the same route as the motorway nowadays. I would guess it was late afternoon.

In the meantime I did a little more research myself. This Streetview seems to match pretty well in terms of the terrain and the timeline: https://maps.app.goo.gl/giNGhXgLeYRTm2zS8 But for the houses and walls, I can't find any match. What do you think? Any help would be appreciated.

Rome 1987

This is the first photo of out trip to Rome 1987 and the only one of this trip I could not locate. The following photo I could locate at the entrance of the Vatican Museums. The photo must have been taken on the way from our hotel to the museum. Our hotel was in the west of Rome, I suppose Via Aurelia. We took the bus to get downtown. I suppose the photo was taken at a bus stop. I was not able to locate the photo yet, any help would be appreciated.

Starting the day in Salamanca (Spain, 1986)

These are one of the last photos of the 1986 portugal trip I could not locate. It must be in Salamanca, probably not too far from the centre. We had stayed the night in a hotel in Salamnca because a friendly guy had recommend us a cheap and good hotel and restaurant in the city. We ran into this guy that evening in a parking lot outside Salamanca. We were glad we didn't have to look for a place to camp in the dark. We made it through the night and the meal, but then we realized that the guy must have been paid off for that recommendation. The photos must have been taken close to this Accommodation. I was curios were it might have been but could not figure out that place using streetview though I thought it should be possible.
