Where have meteorites crashed and left craters?
There are hundreds. Probably the most obvious is the Barringer Meteor Crater in Winslow, Arizona, USA, but there are craters all over. Many of them are so old and so enormous that we didn't realize they were ancient craters until we saw satellite photos of them.

Each crater on Mercury was left behind by an asteroid or comet that collided with it. Many of the craters are nearly as old as the planet itself, as collisions were far more common when the solar system was young. Other craters may only be a few million years old.

What is the Perseid meteor shower?
The Perseid meteors are associated with the comet Swift-Tuttle. As the comet comes close to the sun, it starts to melt, and it leaves a trail of rocks and other debris behind. As the Earth passes through this trail, there is increased meteor activity as the rocks left behind by the comet hit the atmosphere. Links can be found below.

When will a meteor shower occur in 2011?
There are several known meteor showers that occur more-or-less regularly during the year. They occur when the Earth passes through the dust trail left behind by a comet. I've linked an article from Sky & Telescope Magazine listing the expected 2011 meteor showers. The first is the Quadrantid, on January 4.
