Toys R Us in Germany

I'm eventually getting back to normal after being away from home three times in as many weeks, and that means I can finally report back having been to Germany and seen Toys R Us there.

My overall impression was that it was much more successful than the UK business, with a better organised store that felt more inviting and offered better browsing. I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't very busy, which was a little surprising as you might expect Saturdays to be the busiest day of the week (especially as they are closed on Sundays in accordance with Germany's restrictions on Sunday shop opening). The school holidays began on Monday so perhaps parents were planning to go in with their kids then, instead.
