Maligawa courtyard queue on 19 Aug - before lunch, or 6:41 kerb already a blob by four
Second Kumbal listed 6:41. We still have not gone inside the Tooth. If we queue Maligawa at 11:00, are we wrecked for a kerb, or is the panic the other way - queue at 15:00 and lose both.

Do Maligawa late morning. If the line is a ninety-minute story at 15:00, bail and hold the kerb. Courtyard will exist tomorrow. 6:41 will not wait while you argue with a shoe token.
Morning is kinder. Covers on, hats off, bottles zipped because monkeys. Then rest, then pavement.
Follow the dress board at the desk. Do not invent a fee. Wrap hire exists if you forgot.
Wait, I am asking this too from the other thread. We are going 11:00 and packing a bun so we do not hunt lunch.
We queued at 15:30 once on a quieter day and it was fine. On a Kumbal afternoon I would not gamble.
