21JAN2012 Ena Resen, Macedonia 23:20:00 5 sec E-W Yellow Very bright something between the Sun and Moon It was far behind some houses, so I don't know I didn't have time to take a photo but made a drawing.  I am from the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, a neghbour country to Greece. It could have been 23:30 according to our time ( Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia ), which would be 00:30 Greek time. So it should be the same meteor. Resen is Close to the Macedonian - Greek border , and so is the town of Kolindros.  I hope I helped And please tell me if we saw the same meteor. This is my first experience of this kind for me. And it means to me a lot. Thank you
Thank you Ena!
