In this episode: We head to Disneyland on Fitbit's #GoalDay2016 challenge day to add some steps to our day while testing out some 360-video!

Fitbit has several challenges for yourself and against others. At times they do special challenges like yesterday’s #GoalDay2016 so we headed to Disneyland for a couple of hours to add some steps to our fitness trackers!

This was our first attempt at doing a 360-degree video and we’re learning quite a bit from just that single video. Here’s some tips on how to watch:

If you’re on your phone/tablet, watch using the YouTube app. This will allow you to use your finger to pan the video in several directions to see what was in the surroundings. You can also move your device around and the video will follow.
If on a desktop, make sure you have the latest version of Chrome, Opera, Firefox, or Internet Explorer.
For an experience that’s a little more immersive, try watching using Google Cardboard or other VR device.
