The exhaust gas reacting with the cat turns into C02 and H2O. Don't worry about it... it's normal.

yup

totally normal, thats why you see a little steam/fog comming from the tailpipe in the winter, its the same thing , except its cool outside so you can see the "fumes" from it ,,, dont worry about it. whatever moisture there is, it probably isnt much , and it will just evaporate right out of the pipes
