Yes it's condensation and happens on every airliner, but the water is normally contained by the thermal insulation and runs behinds the panels down to the bilge area (at the bottom of the fuselage barrel). Some issues in the insulation condition or installation can result in water dropping in the cabin.

Interesting, thanks! Did always wonder why sometimes you can hear some running water in the panels. I always assumed it was something on the outside of the plane.
