Facebook ignores Open Graph meta data of my page

I am going crazy over this, like going gray haired instantly. I hope someone can help me.

I am currently developing a website which has accommodations. They have a page for each accommodation with details of that item.

Before the document is put out to the browser, I collect all meta data for Open Graph with php and output it all in the head of the document with the use of og meta tags.

A strange thing happens at all these pages, for example http://parclaclusure.internetanders.nl/nl/accommodaties/lodgetenten/

Because when I use the Facebook Debugger on that url it comes up with different results than the browser gives me in the source code.

The things I did to rule out any problems on my part:

Can anyone point out what's wrong with my og meta tags? or why they are ignored/changed in Facebook. (Facebook uses the og meta data of a page located 1 step higher -> http://parclaclusure.internetanders.nl/nl/accommodaties/)

Note: Please be discrete with the website address, because it's a development environment and not yet meant to go public, live or viral :P, thanks!

You need to check your page with the OpenGraph Debugger : https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

It will update the content of your OG tags in Facebook. It doesn't update the content each time someone share your page, only on debug.

EDIT : On your code :

<meta property="og:image" content="http://parclaclusure.internetanders.nl/uploads/defaults/default.facebook.png" />

What do you expect from this ? You are supposed to have only one OG:image metatag...

It looks like a session problem. I have the feeling a session is set after all the required data is loaded.

What I notice is that after a page refresh I see different content. Hope this helps...
