Kendall's Zilker Botanical Garden Experience

WellieWishers Kendall at a pond at Zilker Botanical Gardens (Photos courtesy of Cathy Runnels)

The author of Doll Therapy, recently shared photos of a visit she and WellieWishers Kendall took to Zilker Botanical Garden (ZBG) in Austin, Texas.  Located on the south bank of the Colorado River at 2220 Barton Springs Road, near downtown Austin, Texas, the ZBG is a botanical garden of varied topography.  Kendall learned this herself first hand as documented in the doll-lightful photos captured during her visit.  (All photos courtesy of Cathy Runnels.)


More Pond Photos (where Kendall's Wellies came in handy)


The Wellies kept her feet dry!


Kendall enjoyed seeing the brightly colored koi swimming in the pond.

Up a rocky path she went...




...and across a bridge she traveled.






She explored golden bamboo and took a brief rest.




Tree climbing was the best!


"This was so much fun!" Kendall shared.

 At a waterfall, Kendall remained fearless.

No, I'm not gonna jump in, silly.




Kendall also walked a beautiful trail at Zilker Botanical Gardens.




It looks like she had a wonderful Zilker Botanical Garden experience.  Her day was documented in a post over at Doll Therapy, which can be read here.  The post also includes a video of these and other still shots taken that day.

Thank you again Cathy for allowing me to share these great photos.

  2. Thank-you to both you and Kathy for sharing these pictures. Kendall sure had the perfect outfit and footwear for her day trip. That's a beautiful botanical garden.
    What a steady and sturdy doll she is to have stood and posed for all those pictures. I'm impressed.

    1. You're welcome, Maricha. I am impressed with the sturdiness exhibited by these photos as well. The WellieWishers appear to be very well made dolls, which are being sold at Toys R Us in addition to online at the American Girl website and in their physical stores. More parents amd girls now have the opportunity to see the dolls in person and buy them now that they are at Toys R Us.

    1. She looks like a fun, sturdy doll. Those wellies are cute. They remind me of the colorful rain boots my daughter wears that I am sure her elementary grade students get a "kick" seeing when she wears them.
