NerdBird's Riddle Archive

Every weekend a new logic riddle is published here (please forgive me, if real life now and then forces me to delay the publishing) and old riddles are moved to the archive. Every riddle has been constructed and tested by me, but still I won't guarantee that they "work". Never mind, go ahead and try!

Riddle #11 (published July 25, 1998)

5 married couples are among the users of a particular beach, but of very different reasons:

Jane enjoys swimming in the sea. Ben lives 3 km away. Those who came to enjoy the sun stayed all day. Those who were there in the afternoon were playing Beach Volley. Candice was walking the dog. Dave always go there in the evening. Laura lives 10 km from the beach, while Beatrice only lives 2 km away. Those who came just after breakfast lives 1 away. Eric is married to Laura. Those who live 10 km away do not play Beach Volley. Adam came just after breakfast. Dave is not looking for amber. Candice never goes in the evening nor in the morning. Alice is looking for amber.

How far away does Adam live?
