Is this normal...?

Near my house we have a stop sign and after it the road goes down and up the hill.
So when after the complete stop I am driving down the hill and not accelerating, my car keeps it in 3 rd gear almost till the road goes straight. Looks like the car is truing to brake with the engine...
Can someone tell me if I should worry or this is ok?
Thanks.

Perfectly normal... although it can be annoying at times.
