Hi, It's very simple. You can set an id at the very top to target an anchor.

 <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My trip to Spain</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="top">
    <img src="images/spain.jpg"alt="A picture of me in Spain">
    <p> Here is a picture of me in Spain last summer!</p>
    <a href="#top">Click here to reach the top</a>
  </body>
</html>

This should probably work for you. Good luck.
