As the eagles rescued Gandalf, Bilbo, and the dwarves, the birds took them first to their aeries in the Misty Mountains to rest for the night. The next morning, the eagles flew the wizard, hobbit, and dwarves to the Carrock, a tall rock outcropping in the eastern foothills of the mountains by a river. The Carrock was named by the skin-changer Beorn, who often used it as a lookout post.

Gandalf said "Good-bye! Be good, take care of yourselves-and DON'T LEAVE THE PATH!"
Is it true that Bilbo leaves the adventure in the book The Hobbit?
At the end of the "the Hobbit" Bilbo leaves a note with the ring attached to it, saying that he plans to go traveling. At the beginning of "fellowship of the ring" Gandalf tells frodo to take the ring to Mordor and destroy it in the fires of the volcano. Bilbo does have a few minor parts in the later books but he is an old hobbit.
In 'The Hobbit' why does Gandalf knock on the door hard?
Because the previous morning, Gandalf had "scratched a queer sign on the hobbit's beautiful green front door" as a sign so that the dwarves would know that Bilbo was the one he had chosen to go on their adventure with them. By knocking very hard on the mark with his staff, Gandalf put a dent in the wood over top of where the sign had been, erasing any evidence that it had been there. That way, Bilbo would not blame Gandalf for all of the dwarves coming to his house to take him on an adventure.
How long does it take Bilbo to find the Dwarves?
In the book "The Hobbit" by Tolkien, Bilbo doesn't find the dwarfs, the dwarfs find him! (With the help of the wizard) It is a wonderful book and I strongly recommend reading it!

The main character is named Bilbo Baggins, a Hobbit from The Shire, who is also in The Lord of the Rings books. There are the dwarves that go with him on his adventure. The leader is Gandalf the Wizard, but he later leaves the group and leaves Thorin, the most important dwarf, in charge.

Why did the wizard disappear in the book The Hobbit?
Gandalf's first action in The Hobbit is to show up on Bilbo's doorstep, and get invited for tea. He shows up a bit late, having told a few dwarves looking for a burgler to stop by as well. These dwarves, at Gandalf's advice, hire Bilbo for the position. Gandalf then accompanies them for a part of their journey. While with the dwarves and Bilbo, he saves them from three angry trolls and rescues them from the goblins of the mountains. With this accomplished, and the dwarves well on their way to their destination, Gandalf leaves them to go do something else that needs doing. Gandalf left the dwarves, in fact, to go and deal with an evil power growing in the south of Mirkwood Forest. This power is referred to as the Necromancer in The Hobbit, and turns out in the sequel to be the dark lord Sauron, who held Middle Earth in terror for a thousand years. Gandalf, and a few wizard friends, successfully drives the Necromancer/Sauron from Mirkwood. Since their foe simply pretended to flee and then sent a few henchmen to take it back, the action wasn't really all that useful, but it's the thought that counts. This done, Gandalf returns to the dwarves, and is there in time to warn them of an approaching goblin army. After the goblins are defeated, Gandalf guides Bilbo the hobbit back home, and goes off to do whatever wizards do.

Why did Bilbo and the dwarves stray from the path?
in the hobbit Gandalf basically pushes him out the door without him really knowing about the whole misson laid out in font of him. all he knows is that gandalf has told the dwarves he is a silent burglar and is perfect for the mission. Bilbo wakes up the next day and is told hes late and is pushed out the door with some haste by Gandalf. since hobbits are humble and don't look for conflict Bilbo simply goes along with it.
