Just left Bree, always loved the meet-up at the Prancing pony, but it still annoys me that Tolkien let Aragon walk around, in dark and dangerous places, with a broken sword, that's one change that made sense in the movie.

Barrow-downs: I always felt that the part of the journey up until Bree, is more like a teenage boys cross country excursion, than a real quest, which provides a nice transition from the cozy shire to the big dangerous world.
