That is a good thing so your login is encrypted   but I'll note
you probably should change your method of logging into gmail by
https://gmail.com/ or https://google.com/gmail https://gmail.google.com/
then the entire session stay encrypted not just the login

if you don't start with HTTPS
all traffic will not be encrypted ;   just your login
which is bad in a public setting
