Something high above the planes in Orange County?

I am not sure what I saw. I had my daughter at the park and some balloons we released. When watching one of them drift off, I could see a sliver of something in the distance. It seamed to be really far away. I thought mabye it was the International Space station? I could not figure it out, I had my eye on it for at least 5 minutes, just watching when a plane flew by, you could clearly see that this craft was much higher than the plane. We are pretty close to Orange County airport, so we always see plane traffic. As I continued watching it, it made a very fast directional move, I lost eye contact with it. I continued looking in the same direction and saw it once again, it kind of moved side to side like a ping pong ball.

I would love to know what this was, if someone could let me know that would be great.

I have never seen anything like this.
