Key West, Ernest Heminway's House, Bathroom
Key West has a charm that has attracted many people. One of those was the author of such works as The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Old Man and the Sea. Yes, Earnest Hemingway was prompted to visit Key West by fellow writer John Dos Pasos. While staying in Key West, he began writing in the mornings when the weather was coolest and exploring his new surroundings during the afternoons. During this time he completed the novel that he had been working on — A Farewell to Arms. Soon after arriving, Hemingway was introduced to deep sea fishing which became one of his lifelong passions. In 1931, the wealthy father of Hemingway's wife, Pauline, purchased this home for the couple. Hemingway owned the home until his death in 1961. The home is in a Spanish Colonial style and constructed of native rock hewn from the grounds. It is now preserved and available for tourists to visit. Hemingway's bathroom. Nothing special — just a bathroom.
