Whilst walking from the apartment to the Cave bar, we stopped to look at the stars in the sky, because it was so clear. We noticed a white light shooting across the sky towards us from the ocean. Initially we thought it was a shooting star, but then it slowed and stopped just hovering there. It was orb like briliant white and had a pulsing yellow light around the edges that change in shade.We were transfixed and joked about it being a alien space ship, but then it started moving closer again and completely changed direction at such a sharp angle we knew it wasn't possible. The speed with which it moved towards the coast of Africa and disappeared was phenomenal.We were shocked and knew what we had just seen was a UFO, as no aircraft we know of could possibly move that fast or change in direction with such a sharp movement at that speed. We didn't know what to do, so we decided not to tell anyone, for fear of being rebuked.We have never spoken about this until today, because we thought people would think us mad. we contacted the site because we have recently watched other peoples stories on the television.
