We might still go south later this week. 19 August. Partner has Palatupana anxiety. Is the queue still the story, or leftover winter talk.

Queue is still a Yala morning. First light is the less-bad version. If the elder already wilted this week, skip and sit Tissa. I will not invent a gate-open minute or a vehicle cap. Rest is a real plan, not a failure.

I would not send a cooked triangle body straight into Palatupana. Recover, then decide. Parks will remain.

Sat the line, still a morning. Would not do it the day after Mihintale stairs.
