Hi,

congratulations! You woke up inside a photo-camera! ;-)

There is probably a small hole in the curtain between the wall and the real houses. The light from the houses goes through the small hole and ends up on your wall. The light from a roof for example, comes from above, goes through the hole and ends up low on your wall. That's why things are upside down.

This principle is calles Camera Obscura, and is the base of modern photography.
Read all about it on wikipedia:
