Our First Thoughts About San Pancho

After our long travel day from Grenada to Puerto Vallarta, we took the local bus to the sleepy little village of San Pancho. As the bus pulled into town, the rain started to pour and it didn’t stop for three days! Unfortunately, those were the only three days that we had to look for an ...
