A few tourists sunbathe at a mostly empty beach on the island of Djerba, Tunisia, on Sunday, July 9, 2011. The whitewashed buildings in the central square of the small town gleam brightly in the blinding sun under the piercing blue of a July sky on the picturesque Tunisian island of Djerba. But the cafes in the sunplashed plazas and shaded archways of the market which would normally be bustling at this time of year are deserted as the local economy suffers from the disappearance of foreign tourists.
