Yup....was last down there about 10 year ago. Got a pic from that spot somewhere. Don't remember chickens running around so much as the cats...they were everywhere.

If you're ever down there and sober for a little while, the tour of Hemingway's house is worth the time. Great story about the original Picasso piece that was unknowingly being used as a door stop by the new owners when the estate sold after his death. Better like cats though.....they're all over the estate. Ernest was the original "crazy guy with all the cats". Great writer though! Plus, any guy that made a decorative fountain outta his favorite bar urinal is alright by me! :cool-smiley-011:

Was there last spring with my wife... my parents had the exact same picture from when they were down there 20 years before.

We spent quite a bit of time in Irish Kevins when my wife & I were on are honeymoon & back in our bar hopping days...
That place was pretty ruthless... It is definatly not a place for the easily offended !!
