CruiseCritic.com also has lots of information for you. Click on "Boards" at the top of the page, then on "Royal Caribbean". You might also be interested in the Roll Call for your particular sailing.
The ship will definitely be full, though I'm not sure that's a good thing, especially at Christmas! Lots of rowdy kids.
At Coz, you should go to Chankanaab Park. Just get a cab and go. Check out their website. Never been to Labadee, but had read it's so-so. Ocho is sketchy - be ready to say "No" repeatedly and endlessly! Cayman is nice and also very pricey. You have to do the stingrays there, if you've never been, but not with a ship's tour. Go to "Ports of Call" at CC and check out all the recommendations for these ports.
Have fun!

I am sure it will be a full cruise since it's the holidays. Freedom is a great ship and you'll have a great time! Dont' forget to try the flow rider.
Tips - I suggest Bonin and sea bands for motion sickness.
Bring a night light for your cabin as it's dark in their at night.
An air freshner for the bath is recommended.
A power strip is very useful as outlets are very few - for your curling iron, cell phone, rechargable batteries, etc.
If you have never been to any these places I suggest Sting Ray city for the grand caymans, Dunn River Falls in Jamaica and snorkeling in Cozumel. I use a private dive company that is a small family business each time I go there - eagleraydivers.com. They offer several diving and shore options - something for everyone!
Have a great time - I just got back, wish I was going again!

I went on the Freedom last year & loved it. Definitly at least try the flowrider & bring gym clothes cause they have a huge gym with a boxing ring go at least once. One of nights they turn the pool into a club don't miss that. As far as the ports I recommend you book an excursion thru the cruise line for Ocho rios cause it's too hectic at the port & the tour guides are really pushy. In Grand cayman don't miss 7mile beach. Have fun :)
