                   Excerpts 
                    from Kristy: 
                    Yet another fantastic place to stop. The tour itself consists 
                    of you, the tourist, standing before a big glass window while 
                    the tour guide points out the factory workers and what they're 
                    doing.  
                  Our guide gave us an excellent tour and explained that Lake 
                    Champlain Chocolates is actually a third tier chocolatier. 
                    The first tier is the actual harvesting and roasting of the 
                    bean. The second is the process of making cocoa butter and 
                    chocolate. The third is actually doing something with the 
                    chocolate slabs. This is where Lake Champlain comes in. Yes, 
                    samples abound and the chocolate is excellent.
