| Name | Deb P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was the first time I've ever seen one, so I didn't know what it was. I thought it was a shooting star but a bit slower, and when it exploded at the end I thought it was a firework, but the way it appeared suddenly (and from a direction over water) and there was no noise, I knew that couldn't be the explanation. |
