Thanks Frodo Baggins, I was wondering that myself! Who knows? Perhaps there is a whole nother back story and Elrond is doing things that we never hear about, like using his powers to protect them, sending messengers, making sure that they are not tracked in his country. Who knows? Perhaps he was trying to convince the elves to stay another year to help the ring bearer. Without him, perhaps Lorien would have been deserted when the fellowship got there?
