A tortoise walks $60$ meters per hour and a lizard walks at $240$ meters per hour. There is a rectangle $ABCD$ where $AB =60$ and $AD =120$. Both start from the vertex $A$ and in the same direction ($A \to B \to D \to A$), crossing the edge of the rectangle. The lizard has the habit of advancing two consecutive sides of the rectangle, turning to go back one, turning to go forward two, turning to go back one and so on. How many times and in what places do the tortoise and the lizard meet when the tortoise completes its third turn?
