Yeah, it is fun riding this vessel! I can feel the wind blowing 
through my hair, but can not tell which way it is blowing yet, so I 
am checking that my life vest is fastened and remind myself that I am 
a good swimmer anyway.

But please do not let your self get bothered by Dumbledore's age. 
IMO he is not really that old, 
because in CoS when Harry sees him `in the diary' 
he hardly recognises him, because he looks so much younger, 
and he was just a teacher, and this, 
we know is only 50y before CoS time. 

So I would think somebody who can visibly age like this 
in 50y is not unnaturally old.

The elf connection though may be there 
- not in the half-elf sense. 

But DD is the only adult one, who really advocates for the elves 
(employs Dobby for a start) 
and also mentions that they have powerful magic.

I was always wondering 
what the Fountain of Magical Brethren (FoMB) 
and they way it is used in the fight in OoP can tell us, 
about WW and the future of it. 

Surely wizards, witched and centaurs are not to be all destroyed in 
the end, to leave only goblins (without ears) and elves behind : O
