Two kids under ten, already tired. Official stream is still running on the TV. Is it smarter to stay on the hotel feed for the last stretch, or bundle them out for thirty minutes on the street.

With tired kids the stream is kinder. Street last-thirty is loud, slow, and hard to exit if someone melts down.

If they specifically want elephants in person, do a short side-street look then retreat - do not commit to the densest kerb.

You are not missing a secret finish ritual by watching the official feed. It is the same cortege.
