Queer Lodgings

Is the seventh chapter of J.R.R Tolkien's The Hobbit.


 * 7 - Queer Lodgings - The Eagles drop Gandalf, Bilbo, and the Dwarves off at the Carrock, and they head for Beorn's house. Along the way Gandalf tells them a little about their soon to be host. Once there Gandalf tells the Dwarves to come in pairs every five minutes, Gandalf tells Beorn the tell of their journey so far, and Beorn lets them stay. They stay there a few days, and at the end of their stay Beorn gives them advise on how best to travel through Mirkwood, gives them supplies, and lends them ponies to take them up to Mirkwood (Though they would have to send them back once they got there). They travel to Mirkwood and send the ponies back; there Gandalf leaves them to attend to other matters.
