I am currently visiting a country down near the equator (my home in the central US), staying in a comfy but rather cheap hotel. The first day, I discovered these wonders on the ceiling in the bathroom.

I got rid of them with some cleaning spray and paper towels (mostly, there is still some mold visible in the cracks; it will probably come back, but hopefully I can keep it at bay until I move out.)
It looks like mold, but I have never seen mold with sporangiophores this big, nor can I find any pictures like this on the internet. Maybe the tropical humidity makes the mold grow bigger here. Or is this some other kind of fungi? Has anyone ever seen anything like this? (If you can't get the perspective from the picture, the longest sporangiophore there is at least 1.5, maybe 2 inches long.)
