Hay all,
Got to Kathmandu, far out I'd forgotten how crazy it was over here. After taking an hour to get my Visa I then went to pick up my bag. Now in Nepal there is no conveyor belt that brings your bag around to you, rather there are 4 piles of bags at the airport and good luck finding yours as there is no particular system for letting you know where it is. In the event of being unable to find you bag you can alway got to the unmanned lost or damaged baggage counter.
Upon exiting the Airport I was immediately accosted by about 10 taxi drivers wishing to take me to there hotel (always the cheapest and best in Nepal).
I did managed to get to Tamal and find a decent place to stay and am off to Kopan Monastery tomorrow.
