| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Amazing! I was in the spa looking at my phone and sensed the sky light up/glowing. Looked up to see meteor flying overhead, slower moving than I’ve usually seen, Felt like it lasted 1-2 seconds before it disappeared over the top of Deer Park Heighrs (mountain) |
