Familiar in a Foreign Land

This is a picture of my hometown, but this is not my phone. I've walked this street many, many times but never expected to find a picture of it in Thailand, and especially not as the background to a cell phone.

A friend and I were wandering around, enjoying the air-conditioning in Tesco Lotus (a big Walmart-type store) when I looked down at the phone I was playing with and thought, "That's a nice, colorful picture...wait, that's a familiar picture...wait, that's my old city!" I excitedly tried to explain to my friend that the picture was from my hometown (Reno, Nevada). She wasn't nearly as excited as I was.
