We're in Hong Kong right now and visited Macau for the day, to check out the MJ Gallery and Cafe they have at the Sofitel Hotel.

MJ is the main casino attraction. They advertise with it when you arrive in Macau: Free shuttle!

that is to much to pay for a mug not to mention the other items. but the thought is nice i guess
 
Uhm, those are Hong Kong dollars, so everything is actually CHEAP!
You have to divide by 10 to get the euro price, or by 7,5 to get it in US$ ;)
 
Great gallery...they have put a lot of thought and effort into making this look really special. Kudos to them.

Thank you for posting...great pics!

(I'm hoping to head to the States one day to see all the MJ -related sites...guess I'll have to try to make it a 'round the world' ticket, to pull in Macau too!)
 
Wow! Just Wow! Thank you for posting the photo's. very cool, love it.
 
Amazing!! Thanks fot sharing. I think there should be an MJ bus in every city!
 
Now I wanna go there too. So fantastic. I wanna MJ bus in my city too!
 
Thanks for the photos! I'd love to visit this place, and I probably will if it remains for the next 2 years at least :)
 
@claudiadoina, I think it was for some kind of Pepsi event, probably in the 80's, maybe even with The Jacksons. This pic was with it:
