Dublin and Glendalough/Wicklow? Or just Dublin?

Hi all, My husband and I are taking a quick weekend trip to Dublin this coming weekend. The way our flights work out, we only have about two and half days in Dublin. My question is, should we spend all of our time in Dublin seeing the sights or should we divide our limited time between Dublin and a tour to the Wicklow Mountains/Glendalough?

Yes, do both! It will give you a taste of something other than the city. Glendalough is in a gorgeous area, and you can get half-day tours. You can hit the highlights of Dublin in your remaining two days or so.

We had about the same amount of time in Dublin as you will. We used the hop-on-hop-off bus while in Dublin, and took one of the half-day tours that went to Wicklow/Glendalough. It's definitely possible to do both!
