I was taking my wife to the airport heading south on I-5 and we were going by downtown Seattle when looking directly to our west we saw an amber circlular thing hovering over Seattle. Then as we continued driving south we kept watching it. It hovered in one place for 40 sec or so then we lost sight of it,but then it reappeared 10 seconds later moving very fast and then hovering again---we traveled 5 miles while watching it to the west of I-5 then it left our sight--All three of us saw it(my wife and i and my 5 year old daughter----It was about the size of superball held at arms length. We had never seen anything like it before in our lives!!!!
