Diya Kapeema is 1:28 AM on the 27th - not tonight and not this morning
Overnight a blog in the family chat said water-cutting is this weekend and someone else said Sunday dawn. The Maligawa table says 27 August 1:28 AM. Tonight is the 5th Kumbal. I think people are mixing Diya with Saturday because both sound late. Confirm we are not walking to a river at dawn.

Diya Kapeema is 27 Aug 1:28 AM on sridaladamaligawa.lk. The dates page on kandyesalaperahera.com still does not list it. Tonight is 6:28 PM, 22 Aug. Not Diya. Day Perahera is 28 Aug 2:18 PM. Anyone offering a dawn water-cut tuk on Saturday is inventing.
Do not leave this house for a river. Saturday night is the last Kumbal. That is the walk.
