The Natural Bridge was one of Aruba's most popular attractions.
The bridge was a formation of coral limestone cut out by thousands of years
of pounding waves and strong winds.
It was one of the largest of these types of spans in the world, standing

Well after our visit, the Natural Bridge collapsed in September 2005.
Before its collapse, people could walk across it and admire the dry, windy
environment that is typical of Aruba.
Below is a picture of the collapsed bridge that we borrowed from the internet....
