Bubble Boy and Bubble Girl live in bubbles of unit radii centered at $(20, 13)$ and $(0, 10)$ respectively. Because Bubble Boy loves Bubble Girl, he wants to reach her as quickly as possible, but he needs to bring a gift; luckily, there are plenty of gifts along the $x$-axis. Assuming that Bubble Girl remains stationary, find the length of the shortest path Bubble Boy can take to visit the $x$-axis and then reach Bubble Girl (the bubble is a solid boundary, and anything the bubble can touch, Bubble Boy can touch too)
