Isn't it great? The terrific new discount will shave mucho moolah off our original fare.

I'm using my savings to buy a ravishing evening gown to go with your tux.

(We're both fibbing, of course!).

On the other hand, last cruise, several freeper gents wore tuxes on the formal night. They looked so devastatingly handsome and elegant.

The days of Cary Grant are not over, ladies. Hooray!

To wind up our mini-series on dining aboard the "Triumph" (which we hope you enjoyed), here's a few final tidbits.

Special diets are catered to. Plenty of fresh fruits, healthy cereals and the like are available for breakfast. Daily lunch and dinner menus feature selections that are low in fat, calories, sodium and cholesterol. All lunch and dinner menus also feature vegetarian choices.

Crumb-crunchers have a variety of selections on lunch and dinner menus with such choices as Pizza Deluxe, Cheese-a-Burger and Spaghetti Mama Mia. Soda pop is free for kids 12 and under during meals in the main dining room (not in the Lido Deck dining area).

Coffee, tea and iced tea come with meals. Soda for adults is extra as are adult beverages. But you can purchase a "soda card" at the purser's desk at the beginning of the cruise for a nominal sum. It gives you unlimited sodas for the entire week anywhere on ship.

If you're sunning or reading in a comfy deck lounge chair, stewards will bring you icy banana coladas, bloody marys or anything your thirst desires.

Ice cream, frozen yogurt and freshly-made snacks, such as homemade cookies and brownies, are available in the Lido area almost anytime.

Twenty-four hour complimentary room service is available throughout your voyage. Simply choose from the menu located in your stateroom and phone to place your order.

For a continental breakfast delivered to your stateroom door, fill out one of the order forms and hang it on your doorknob before going to bed. Your order will be picked up while you sleep and delivered in the morning at the time you specified. If you selected a cabin with a verandah, nothing could be finah than to be an outdoor dinah watching the peaceful, blue Caribbean sea.

Cruisers may find that on certain evenings, such as after an exhilarating day in port or at the beach, they desire a very casual dinner. That's why the Triumph has a "Seaview Bistro".

Every evening, a section of the indoor/outdoor Lido deck restaurants is converted to Seaview Bistro. Guests may "come as they are" any time between 6-9:30 PM for a delicious array of dinner choices. Pastas, steaks, prime rib, grilled chicken, specialty salads and luscious desserts are available, along with a daily chef's special.

Many people say the number one reason they cruise for a getaway week is FOOD. Meaning they not only eat like kings and queens, but for an entire week in life's yearly order of things, they don't have to prepare lists and menus, shop, hang over a hot stove and clean up the mess afterward.

Hey, I'm all for THAT!
