Lisa:

::::snort:::::  Oh, how I wish there WAS a "Godric's Hollow, A 
History!"  LOL!

I, too, thought that the only reason she wouldn't disapparate with Baby 
Harry would be that she physically couldn't because of the magical 
protections on the house.   Then, once we saw Fred & George apparating 
in Grimmauld Place, it made me question even that; and further, when 
Harry and Dumbledore went to see Slughorn to offer him the Potions job, 
Harry asked why they couldn't just apparate into the house.  Dumbledore 
told him that magical persons have protections that keep others from 
doing so (much like Muggles have locks), but didn't say that they 
themselves couldn't do so.

Very curious.
