5th Kumbal 6:28 at Katugastota Road park-and-walk, bottles already bought — table start versus when the tusker actually fills the street, 6:28 table or later at the pin

5th Kumbal table 6:28 PM on Saturday 22 Aug is when they start leaving the Maligawa, not when the tusker fills the pin. Drums first, dancers, then the heavy bit. Do not invent a closure on the animals; take a step back if you need air. No touching, no feeding, no selfie stick over the line. From Katugastota Road park-and-walk, bottles already bought, two people back still sees the shape. Return bend is when people get stupid — peel before. Kumbal is a real night, not a failed Randoli. Saturday 22 Aug is the last Kumbal; Randoli nights follow after this.
