Field Trip – Power and Ouzo
One of our first field trips took us to two large facilities on the island within walking distance of out hotel. First we toured the main power plant for the whole island. Next we got to tour the Mini Ouzo factory, who was kind enough to provide free samples. Ouzo is a liquor distilled from anise that tastes similar to black liquorice. One of the cool things about it is that is a clear liquid that turns cloudy when mixed with water.
