Looks like the front one handed off something to the people at the front opening.  Maybe someone forgot their lunch bucket and mom brought it.  Backing off the one now.

What flag is flying on NS?

Well I can't stay any longer as I have to supervise DH cooking dinner.

Wishing all the Nieuw Statendam passengers a great cruise.

They should be taking up the gangway shortly, don't you think?

As oriented, it is French but if rotated, it is Dutch...

Crew gangway being stowed.

Why fly the French flag?

[travelnap]

Dropping all lines.  She should be underway shortly.

[SumoCitrus]

That flag looks (L to R) Black/Yellow/Red  to me
