While in Pamplona, I wanted to find the large bull ring I'd spotted earlier on arrival in the city.
This is the Plaza de Toros de Pamplona.
Plaza de Toros de Pamplona is a bullring in Pamplona, Spain. It is currently used for bull fighting, sporting or cultural events and music concerts.
Built in 1922 by Francisco Urcola, the stadium holds 19,720 people. It is the end point of the famous Running of the bulls during the festival of San Fermín.
During the first months of 1939, towards the end of Spanish Civil War, it housed a Francoist concentration camp with a capacity of 3,000 Republican prisoners.

It was at the El Floridita bar in Havana, Cuba that Ernest "Papa" Hemingway began his love affair with the daiquiri. The writer was known to hold court in a favorite corner of this famous Havana bar and power down glass after glass of barman Constantino Ribalaigua Vert's classic cocktail. It became known as the Hemingway Special, or the Hemingway Daiquiri. He would often order doubles of the drink, or as he called them, "Papa Dobles."

My first trip to Paris, in 1988, was very much about Ernest Hemingway, especially "The Sun Also Rises."

"As long as I had you I could stand anything and get through anything - and now I haven't got you and you've taken yourself deliberately away and I know you are sick and ill in the head and miserable Pfife and I can't stand it."
I could honestly seriously cry right now.
Ernest Hemingway, I believe I might be in love with you. And I think I may have been in love with you for quite some time now. This may be weird for me to say, but I wish you were still here. I feel so - maybe it's because I have read some of your personal letters - but, I feel so strong for you. Sure, you may have had many wives, but you addressed them all with so much love. So much love that I have felt through each flip of every single damn page. Your pet names, nick names, not just for the women that you have loved, but also for the men you have loved as well. F. Scott Fitzgerald - gosh you two were wonderful. You are so, hilarious. And clever, and... gosh. Why aren't you here? Imagine if you were? Actually, I think you wouldn't have liked it.
I have spent hours reading these letters. And it seemed as if I was supposed to find this book. Going through my old high school library and stumbling upon this, and it not having a bar code or anything. And having the librarian let me keep it? I am so lucky.
I have spent hours in your thoughts.
In your love.
Did you imagine this?
And just this....
what you wrote.
You are breaking my heart. You are breaking my heart.
Is... is it, bad? That... I feel both of you?
As soon as I read this, my heart broke. You caught me at such a weird time. But I feel like I should still say thank you.
AND I CAN'T STAND IT.
"The Bar Jamaica opened in 1911, immediately after Carlo Mainini got the licence for a wine shop. For many years the place did not had a name, but all the neighborhood would go there: from the gas station attendant to the moneybags, up to the little delinquent. Everybody used to smoke and, immersed in that fog, Giulio Confalonieri, a critic working for the 'Corriere della Sera', baptized it 'Jamaica', drawing inspiration from the movie 'Jamaica Inn' (1939) by Alfred Hitchcock. Its sign became one of the most popular in Italy. In the bar there was a unique climate that contributed to make Milan a capital of culture. It was the meeting point of intellectuals, artists, literary men and journalists such as Luciano Bianciardi, Mario Dondero, Giancarlo Fusco, Camilla Cederna, Piero Manzoni, Emilio Tadini, Gianni Dova, Cesare Peverelli, Lucio Fontana, Giuseppe Ungaretti, Salvatore Quasimodo, and later Allen Ginsberg, Dino Buzzati, Ernest Hemingway, Enrico Baj and Dario Fo."

Hello again to my flickr friends and apologies for my absence. Life and stuff gets in the way at times . . . as does the odd vacation. . . returned from Cuba with many new photos, some of which I will be sharing.
A view of the famous Bodeguita del Medio in old Havana. This little restaurant is famous for serving many celebrities including of course Ernest Hemingway. It is also the subject of many a local artist canvas renderings.

This is a modern replica of the original - a cat ceramic made by Pablo Picasso. The original was stolen by a thief and broken when he was apprehended shortly after.
This reproduction was made by local artist, Bob Orlin.
The house was built by Asa Tift, a marine architect (and Confederate mariner), in 1851. In 1931 Hemingway purchased it and lived here with his second wife, Pauline, and their two sons until 1939.
Here, Hemingway completed the final draft of "A Farewell to Arms," as well as "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber".

Here's a shot I took of Walloon Lake I took in July 2004 as I rode by on my bicycle. The lake first became one of the great vacation/resort lakes of Michigan during the late 19th century. Ernest Heminway's family owned a cottage along this lake when he was a boy and was an inspiration for the Nick Adam's stories.

Hemingway at work in his study. Because he appears older in this vintage photograph, it was probably taken at Finca Vigía, his home near Havana, Cuba, not in Key West.
This is where Hemingway did his writing when he lived in Key West. Located in a separate building that was connected by catwalk to Ernest Hemingway house, Key West, FL
