where does frodo gandolf and bilbo go in the ship? why do they leave?

Frodo, Gandalf, and Bilbo go onto the ship with the elves to the Undying Lands, the harbour in which they take off is the Grey Havens. They go onto the ships because their purpose on Middle-Earth is done.

I thought that only rig bearers could go

ring*

yes....but all those who went where ring bearers

what do they do there. is it like a new home for them. are the m ovin there.?

gandalf???? a ring bearer????

he had the ring of fire that cirdan gave him and his purpose was to fight against sauron and it was done so he left

it's where they go to live peacefully after their purpose on middle earth is complete.. there no wars or anything happen so they are safe and they get to live forever

at least I think.. I'm not a professional but hey

Shouldn't this have a "spoiler" tag attach?

No....why? Well maybe yeah.

And the Undying Lands are like the Middle-Earth retirement home as you can say. ^-^;;

yeah I know ho w to do it now .. ok time to think of a spoiler umm evil frodo has his evil finger bittn off by evil gollum oh my evillneess

this is true

they get to live forever in undying lands...cool! didn't know that. i'll kept that in mind for my fics!

For arguements sake I suppose Sam could claim a seat on that ship as he did have the ring for a short period of time,

Sam does go west after rosy dies... 80 years or so after Frodo goes.

Sam wanted to go when Frodo went but Frodo told him he still had alot to do in the shire and he still had to take care of Rosie and Elanor.

ah, I never looked at the timeline, anyways I was wondering if there was a timeline and also a map of middle-earth online

im not sure....but there must be one sumwhere

I think i might go look for one

Discos...if you search for "Middle-Earth map" on Goggle images u get loads.

right-e-o cheers, The problem could be being that they are fartoo huge for a computer screen, luckily there is an option called "zoom" nowadays.

no problem, zoom is always a good function
