Greek Islands: Kitron Distillery and Mt. Zeus on Naxos : We rented a four wheeler (for balance challenged me) and a scooter for Steve and drove into the interior of the island.  There we climbed the highest point on the island, Mt. Zeus, and toured a citron (called kitron in Greece) distillery with some really old fashioned equipment.  The equipment isn't for show; they actually use it.
