15:15 Hiking along the road again, we passed by Glendale Avenue and the Pen Centre. We stopped for a break at the Tim Hortons on Tremont Drive to find the dogs were very cold and shivering. Merlin and Morgana seemed to have cold hands and feet. Tori went into the dentists and called her mother Ruth for a pick-up.
