Streetlights flickered once on our late stretch about three hours in. Keep watching, or take it as a cue to start the outer exit. Not power-bank sellers, and not hotel Wi-Fi drop.

One flicker is usually just grid load — not a parade clock. Keep watching if the group is fine. Start the outer exit only if kids are scared of the dark gap or you were already leaving.

If drops and flicker arrive together, peeling feels calmer than decoding omens.
