The name was officially changed back in 2016. Not sure what the actual population calls the country now though but we will try to remember and ask when we met up with some friends on Sunday. We do know from our last visit that they will talk about the different regions by name if you are referring to a specific city or town but they don't use these for the name of the country.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-79374823611880101822022-05-20T02:02:52.795-04:002022-05-20T02:02:52.795-04:00The scenery is so beautiful here, just like we rem...The scenery is so beautiful here, just like we remember from our visit here back in 2012.

It really is a gorgeous area. We were in Olomouc for about a week back in 2012 and we loved this small city. You definitely need to come back for a visit. :-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-52968016718003385312022-05-19T22:41:44.480-04:002022-05-19T22:41:44.480-04:00How nice it is again to receive alerts of your dai...How nice it is again to receive alerts of your daily musings.
