These pictures are from the RBTU Holiday Park.
In 1989 my brother Peter Uwe came to visit us. He stayed with us for a few weeks. Unfortunately it rained most of the time while he stayed with us at Oak Flats. Only during our one weeks stay with him at Sussex Inlet we had beautiful sunshine. Looking at this blog about Sussex Inlet brings back memories. Here is the link to the blog about Sussex Inlet in April of 1989:

My, my, my, this was nearly thirty years ago!
Soon after waking up in the morning Caroline, Troy and Ryan go outside to greet a kangaroo.

SIXTY YEARS AGO WE ARRIVED IN AUSTRALIA:
On the 31st of May 1959 Peter and I arrived with the P&O liner “STRAITHAIRD” in Port Melbourne. Six months old Monika and twenty months old Gabriele were with us. We can hardly believe it, that this was sixty years ago!
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS on the 31st of May 2019:
Celebrations on that sixty year anniversary are coming up! We are going to meet with the whole extended family for these celebrations. We decided we are going to celebrate at this beautiful Holiday Park at Sussex Inlet.
AuntyUta 
I always enjoy seeing photos of your family, Uta. These are really nice from what was obviously a very fun time!
We’ve been going to this Holiday Park since 1985, Debra. And we still love it. And our children and grandchildren and now also our great-grandchildren love it too. We plan to all visit this park on the 31st of May this year to celebrate our 60th anniversary of our arrival in Australia, that is Peter and I arrived sixty years ago in Australia with two little daughters. So in 1985 we went to this holiday park for the first time:

The park is run by the “The Rail Tram and Bus Union (RTBU) the voice of workers in Australia’s rail and public transport industries. With around 35,000 members, our Union is open to anyone who works in light rail, passenger rail, freight rail, or on publicly-operated bus networks. We cover train and bus drivers, station staff, cleaners, train controllers, track maintenance workers and many others who work in our industries.”
“The objective of our Union is to ‘organise workers in the transport industry to protect and build their rights at work’. We achieve this by:
organising our sector of the transport industry;
working to continuously improve and maintain high workplace safety standards for workers and the travelling public;
ensuring every worker is treated with dignity and respect in their workplace;
collectively bargaining for wages and conditions that reflect the skills and contribution workers make to the transport industry and the economy;
delivering industrial, legal and advocacy services to members;
educating delegates and workplace activists; and
campaigning in the community on transport issues.”
