"I mean, if Gimli was able to enter (presumably by Galadriel's support) couldn't Galadriel do the same for her grand-daughter?"

Point taken. I know this is guesswork but what if she prayed really hard to her grandmother to let her in? I mean, JRRT tells us that Galadriel was mighty among the Eldar so couldn't The Lady have found a way to supersede the choice of Arwen? C'mon, give the Evening Star some hope!

On a similar note, wouldn't it be great if Tolkien depicted the leavetaking of Legolas & Gimli and Arwen? Would she have sent letters to her family? Would Legolas & Gimli be overcome with weeping and sadness?

The Flame of Anor has risen in the East! Twenty three years is such a short time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits!
