I'd have to disagree with you on that. I'm not sure if Galadriel was happy or sad that the elves were leaving, but why should she be sad for them when they are heading to a better place?

The Grey Havens was the most touching moment for me of the movie. I think Peter Jackson did a wonderful job with it, but that's my opinion.
