| Name | Paula M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was breath taking. I wish the clouds hadn't moved in, however I think the clouds gave it an effect that was amazing. I kept wondering if the light would reappear, what had I seen?? Then the boom. Thought maybe lightning. But not enough cloud depth for that and it's winter. |
