Consider two concentric circles, the smaller with a radius of $15$ meters and the larger with a radius of $30$ meters. An elephant follows a path starting at a point $P$ on the smaller circle and walks:
1. A quarter of the circumference of the smaller circle.
2. Then moves radially out to the larger circle.
3. Walks a third of the circumference of the larger circle.
4. Returns via the same radial path to the smaller circle.
5. Completes another quarter of the circumference of the smaller circle before finishing its walk.
Calculate the total distance walked by the elephant.
A) $30\pi + 30$ meters
B) $40\pi + 30$ meters
C) $35\pi + 30$ meters
D) $35\pi + 40$ meters
E) $30\pi + 40$ meters
