It looks like the powers that be at the office are sending me on a boondoggle to Japan for a week later this month. I will have a weekend to explore (not much time I know) but does anyone have tips on how to maximize my time there? A quick list of the best things to see? I will be in/near Tokyo. Never been to Asia before, don't speak Japanese. Also, I will be flying coach for 18 hours, is there any way to plug my laptop in? Can I buy an adapter that will fit the aircraft somehow? I don't know if international flights have plugs like that...?

Hey, I may be dating myself, but I flew to Japan in 1961, in a prop. It took us 24 hours, many stops. But I was so young, I didn't mind. And, I was single and in Tokyo, the yen was 350 to the dollar. Life was good. I got stationed on Hokkaido for 15 months.
