Alaskan Cruise with Gaither Vocal Band - Aug. 2015
Bill & Gloria Gaither, Steve & Laurie Martin
Laurie and I were blessed to join her sister, Linda and husband Dick Skaggs, on the Gaither Vocal Band Alaskan Cruise Aug. 2-9, 2015. We flew from Charlotte to Seattle, where we boarded the Holland America Amsterdam with about 1500 others. Stopping at the port cities of Juneau, Sitka, and Ketchikan, Alaska, along with Victoria, British Columbia Canada, we enjoyed the seven-day trip.
In concert each day, along with the Gaither Vocal Band, were The Martins, The Isaacs, Angel Primm, Buddy Greene, Charlotte Ritchie, Russ Taff, Gene McDonald, Wesley Pritchard and more.
We saw the Lord's creation of glaciers, whales, eagles, sea lions, otters, and King salmon.
I shot over 900 photos and 20 videos, which can be seen on my Facebook page (martinlighthouse) and You Tube (loveforhispeople).
Blessings!
Steve & Laurie
Singers included The Martins, The Isaacs, Ladye Love Smith, Charlotte Ritchie and Angela Primm.
