smiffy1951 Posted June 9, 2011 #2 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Hi infoqueen The first time we tried to find this from the directions given to use we were miles away and half way into the town centre:eek: If you come out of the port and go over the bridge, go straight over but sort of leftish and then carry on up a small incline. The shopping mall is on the left. Hope that makes sense. Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smiffy1951 Posted June 9, 2011 #4 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Hi Jim It's not very far. Probably takes about 10-15 minutes depending on how quickly you walk. I wouldn't say it's huge but quite a few nice shops to mooch around. Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel Rouser Posted June 9, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Pino shopping mall Palma ..its is very easy to get to. Come out of the port straight over the Crossing bear left for 25 mtrs and in from of you there will be a set of steps, take these and just follow the road for about 50 mts and its right in from of a kiddies playground ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenny wren Posted June 9, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 9, 2011 First time we went we just looked around at ground level....next time we realised there is another level below ground with a huge Carrefour hypermarket...so good place to stock up on things you may need/have forgotten!!

Would be a good place to pick up some water for trips etc. too. I'm sure it would be a great deal cheaper than buying on board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki cat Posted June 9, 2011 #11 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Do you really have to buy water? Thought it would be free on AI. Last year in Turkey on AI, water was free - bottled and from the cold machines! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy v Posted June 9, 2011 #12 Share Posted June 9, 2011 We always go to the supermarket to stock uo on drinks, they're very cheap. If you do get lost look out for crew members they are up and down from there neally all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fern Posted June 9, 2011 #13 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Thomson's normally charge for bottled water so we usually buy ours ashore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodafountain Posted June 10, 2011 #16 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I see! Thanks for that! Looks like a trip to the mall then! Or take a small funnel. While i don't agree with people filling bottles from the water machines, due to cross contamination etc., there is nothing to stop you getting a glass of water from the machine, then pouring it into your bottle (might take a few trips). Of course, with a steady hand, no funnel required, depends if you need the water for re-hydration after the night before though, you might not have steady hands :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koromo1 Posted June 10, 2011 #17 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I paid 19c for a 1.5 litre bottle of water in Carrefore and I think in was £1.65 in the cabin last May. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
