So one more late night meant that we would be late in the morning. We planned to go to Khardung la passs (highest motorable road on earth). Roads are a really challenge for the driver. Khardung la pass was a little crowded (you can see a lot of people on bikes), my best bet is that Khardung la is the pinnacle of biking. We did not stop at Khardung la as we knew that we should pass Khardung la when coming back from Nubra. We drove to all the way to Nubra, at Nubra Valley puzzled me we the natures diversity. You can find Sand dunes , greenery, water & mountains, what else you want from nature. After few photo shoot we went to a military canteen and to our shock Dosa was on the menu (let me tell you a secret never try your luck) we checked if we can get permission to go to siachen, unfortunately permission was denied. It was that time of the day where we could not go back as it was late, we decided to stay at Panamik. Panamik is also famous for the Hot water spring.
Road - 2 out of 5
Weather - 3 out of 5
Lesson learnt - do some research on location (Nubra Valley is not worth the travel & time consumed, also listen to somebody who visited recently)

Great travel experience
Good inspiring stuff. Liked it. Just a question, why did you not like Nubra valley, we loved it, the scene, the view, the tents the food.

May be the reason could be that we had seen Pangong on previous day, we were expecting Nubra to be half as good as Pangong.. Let me tell you that i might travel to Pangong in near future... Pangong is a must see!
