Leaving soon for 8 nights in the big city. Any advice from those that have been? Must see places? Don't see places? Lay it on me.

Our lodging is free and meals will mostly be prepared, so really we are just looking for any advice regarding what to see while there.

Thanks to anyone who can help out.

Well it all depends on what part of Toyko you're in.

This of it like DFW, it's a big city with lots of "areas" or suburbs in which has it's own unique thing or thing to see.

I was all over the place and for the life of me couldn't recall where things are.

Things I think are cool there:

1. Noodles houses (like the ones that just sit like 5 people). Great noodles.
2. Akihabra (City of Lights). It's like a suburb of just electronic shops / gift shops. I bought replica airsoft guns here (shhh) amoung toy models.
3. Disney Sea???
4. Mt Fuji for hiking

I found just walking around and exploring to be fun.
