You need to process cookies. Something like:

curl -b cookies -c cookies -o first_page.html [first_url]
curl -b cookies -c cookies -o second_page.html [second_url]

When I try that, I get back a page that contains, among other things:

Vastgoedlijst
5 vastgoedaanbiedingen

along with 5 images and prices in Euros. Displaying second_page.html in a
browser gets me the same page as I get when I paste that first url into the
browser.
