neutral  Alfredo Fernández Martínez: mmm,sorry to disagree,Robert,but 'sin asombro' is,rather than calmly,'to no astonishment, surprise'... not necessarily to do with speed....it could have been quickly...//Okay Robert,I see your point..definitively more context is need here!//ok!/2 u too

there were no surprises as we made our way through the eight rooms


Explanation:
or..as we looked over/searched the eight rooms...
It depends on why we were going through the rooms...searching for something? or being shown around as visitors?

we went through all eight rooms unamazed / in the most natural way


Explanation:
no sé si es en el sentido que lo usó García Marquez, por cuanto en Espantos de Agosto (creo que se llama), recorrieron las 82 habitaciones sin asombro, y creo que se debía a que había tanta fastuosidad y cantidades exhorbitantes de cosas que se adaptaron rápidamente y les pareció natural que hubiera 82 habitaciones. Si me equivoco, por favor, corríjanme.
