Hey, can anybody figure out how to put a link to Google Earth for the location of each of these? Perhaps with an overlay emphasizing key landmarks like unaze and etc.?

Best ice cream & pastry places
- There are 2 ice cream places on Rr Elbasan inside the Unaze just before you get to Rr Hoxha Tasim. Both are worth a significant bike ride to get their ice cream!
- The French Pastry place in New Tirana (near the Vodafone tower) has probably the best desserts in all Tirana
