Random DH questions from a lowly Muggle Part III

This is my final post with DH questions... I'm sure many of them may have been asked, but I cannot read through 950 messages in one shot... so whoever wants to kindly take the time out to try to address these, I would really be grateful to you.

Some of these are not so much questions as they are points to ponder and discuss.

{deep breath... here we go}:

1. How did Hermione get her parents back from Australia - can you perform magic on someone thousands of miles away?

2. Where did the evacuees from Hogwarts go once they got to Hogsmeade - wasn't there a curfew? How did they get all those children home? The Knight Bus? The Hogwarts Express?

3. How did Harry return the wand to DD - did he split the tomb open too?

4. Does anyone else think Dean ended up with Luna, after they spent so much time together at Shell Cottage?

5. Do you think Hermione and the others ended up getting new wands? Do you think Ollivander went back into business in the 'new world'?

6. Why is it that LV killed Gregorovitch and Grindelwald with impunity but let Ollivander live?

7. Why was there no dark mark over all the places where LV killed people, such as the Shrieking Shack, the Malfoy Manor, etc.?

8. What was the fate of the Carrow siblings? Did they stay suspended in their net indefinitely or do you think someone took "care" of them right away?

9. Can you imagine if Harry hadnt lost Hedwig & the firebolt? It would've made his wanderings a lot easier... Smart move of JK to destroy it early on, although he could've gotten a new owl while at the Burrow, so he could have at least communicated with the Weasleys... then again do you think those letters were traceable?

Anyhoo, thus ends all of Mindy the Muggle's curious questions. I rest my case. :).
