The Natural Bridge in Aruba Fell!!!

How sad!!! I'm glad I got to see it on my honeymoon last year!!!

100-foot-long coral bridge collapses into Aruban cove
By Kitty Bean Yancey, USA TODAY
More bad news for Aruba.

Troubled bridge: Before it collapsed overnight, it was one of Aruba's top tourist attractions.


The island's most-visited wonder, a 25-foot-high natural bridge toppled in the pre-dawn hours of Sept. 2. The Aruba Tourism Authority attributes the mysterious collapse to 'the continually changing evolution of nature.'

Loss of the coral bridge on the island's north coast follows a storm of bad publicity for Aruba over the still unexplained May 30 disappearance of Alabama tourist Natalee Holloway.

I will never get to see it now

I know its nature but what makes something like that suddenly happen


I wonder if Aruba is cursed?

The cause was probably also what formed it in the first place...waves and strong winds. I doubt it's cursed but it sure wasn't good luck

I'm soooo UPSET I didn't go see it! I wanted to go on the cruise this summer but I was
outvoted and went to Baby Beach instead. I'm soooo sad! I thought to go there in March since our honeymoon cruise stops there but now we won't have the chance. How many years was it formed?
