Germany's Munich Apple Store opened this week (Cool full page VR) to crowds usually reserved for Oktoberfest.  The store, at 1 Rosenstrasse, is the first of five retail shops that Apple plans to open in Germany.  The store itself, unsurprisingly, isn't much changed from those you know and love, as the pictures below from ifoAppleStore and ifun.de attest.  Here's a live webcam as well.  Oh, and hit up Apple's official German Store page if you plan on being in the area.
