Summary/Description: One day, my friend and I were walking home from school and we paused to chat in the park that was on our way to where we lived. The park is on slight hill, enabling a good view of the vicinity. As we were chatting, we noticed in the far distance, three lights lined up horizontally, much like that of an airplane’s lights (the distance, and the way the lights were positioned), which was what we dismissed them for upon first glance. However, we lost ourselves in our gossip, forgetting completely about the lights and a good twenty minutes later (we are sure of the fact, since dusk had began to set in on the sky), I happened to lift up my eyes and immediately alerted my friend to the fact that the lights hadn’t moved AT ALL from their location for over 20 minutes!

If you’ve seen a plane come in, you know that it appears to “hover” from a distance, but it slowly moves and eventually lands. But this was entirely different. It hadn’t budged and the only explanation we could come up was that it was hovering there. I blurted out, “hey, maybe it’s a UFO spying on us!” and the moment the words left my lips the lights began to move, descending slowly toward the mountains and eventually disappearing behind them. It was almost as if the lights sensed that we had noticed them or something in that nature.
